We now have over 8000 diverse and relevant London members so it’s the perfect opportunity for making new third sector connections. PLEASE NOTE YOU MUST book and pay for your ticket in advance at https://www.privateequitynetwork.co.uk/ ALSO PLEASE NOTE we take most of our event bookings through our website and EventBrite so the numbers booked is much larger than displayed on this Meetup page (normally about 30-50 guests for our breakfast events).

***Note***: As the sunset is still early, we are starting at 6pm for now. The earlier we get there the more time we get! Ultimate Frisbee Pickup! All experience welcome! Main details: • For first-timers: you're very welcome, no experience necessary, we can teach you the rules and how to play. You just need a willingness to run around a LOT! Bring trainers (or cleats/football boots) and clothes you can run in and plenty of water • Please try to bring both a light top and a dark top as this makes splitting into balanced teams easier • Throwing from 6:00pm, we'll kick off a friendly pick-up game as soon as we get numbers. It's fine if you can only make it later on - we play with substitutes so you can join in at any point. If no one is there when you arrive, don't worry, people are probably just late! If the meetup is not cancelled, frisbee will be happening! • Afterwards we always head to a pub garden and have a drink or two :) • Frisbee is a non-contact sport, but the occasional bumps can happen, we're all playing at our own risk

Ready to get outside? Our Thursday morning session in Dulwich park is back! At this moment we can meet with up to 30 people (of more than two households) to do outdoor exercise and walks. However, i like to keep our exercise groups small, so I have set the maximum participants at 12. For now this walk is for our experienced Nordic Walkers only, who already used to Nordic Walk with us regularly before Covid 19 kept us indoors, and who have their own Nordic Walking poles. As this session is outdoors, we will not ask you to wear a face mask, but we do ask you to keep 2 meters apart. Some of our walkers might be immune compromised or more at risk, so please help us keep everyone safe! Please do not come to the session and stay at home if: - you know you have been in contact - in the last 2 weeks- with someone with symptoms of possible Covid, or if you have been in contact with someone who tested positive. - you have any of the following symptoms: (new) Loss of smell/taste, Persistent cough, Fatigue, Loss of appetite, Skin rash, Hives, Fever, Severe muscle pain, Shortness of breath, Diarrhoea, Delirium, Abdominal pain, Chest pain, Hoarse voice, Eye soreness, Sore or painful throat, Nausea or vomiting, Headache, Dizziness or light headedness We meet by the cafe in the middle of the park. Session Price: £10 per session, £89 for a 10-session card or £70 unlimited sessions per month. Session cards and pay Monthly can be used in any of our outdoor walks or indoor Zoom classes sessions (except for the Parkinson's sessions). Pay What Works: The price shown above is the “true” value of the session that best reflects the work I put into preparing and leading your session. However, I understand that not everyone can afford to pay full price, and I don’t want that to stop you from joining us. In an effort to find a balance between more financial accessibility and sustainable pricing, I now offer a “Pay What Works” model. This allows for financial flexibility while still valuing and respecting the work and energy I provide in creating and delivering these classes. Then send an email to ailien@fitandhappyoutdoors.com with the heading “INVOICE please”- followed by “FAHO 1” to pay full price as quoted below, “FAHO 2”, for 20% off, or “FAHO 3” for 50% off. Pllease do tell me if you want to pay for 10 sessions, or if you’d like to pay monthly. I prefer payment by bank transfer, but if that is not possible you could pay in cash. No cheques please, the queues by the banks are just too long. We walk in all safe weather conditions – if a walk is cancelled, we will contact you to let you know. Please check for text messages or Meetup messages before leaving home!

**SUMMARY (all info is approximate!)** **Distance**: 21km (13 miles) **Duration**: 6-7 hours walking **Grade**: Moderate **HIGHLIGHTS** * great views from Shoulder of Mutton Hill * forests coming into bloom * bluebells, spring flowers * forlorn paths * weird and wonderful moreland on Longmore Common * Sussex Border Path & budding rhododendrons, * country pubs for refreshments. We'll start our walk in Petersfield and head north to follow part of the 34 km (21 mile) Hangers Way - a long distance path less travelled within an area of outstanding natural beauty. The countryside around here is unspoilt and forlorn, and we'll meet only a few locals out for a walk with their dogs. In our first hour, we will be rewarded with fantastic views from Shoulder of Mutton Hill as we continue through forested slopes and over open fields towards Liss and then onto Liphook via a nice lunchtime pub stop (for drinks only). After Liss, we will walk down Shipwrights Way to Longmore and Weavers Down, an army managed access land which is eerily remote and wild with a range of different flora, shrubs and trees. We will then walk on the Sussex Border Path and continue to Liphook, where we will reward ourselves with a pub stop. This will be English countryside in its quintessential beauty and at its best – with budding wild flowers and maybe some wild rhododendrons - as well experiencing Longmore Common which feels like walking over Scottish moreland. **COST AND LOGISTICS** **Cost**: £10 **Start**: 8.35 Meet for a group save ticket **Meet:** 8:45 for those who buy their own tickets & walk to train **Finish:** 5.30/6pm for an optional pub visit. **Recommended morning train from London** **Dep**: 09:00 London Waterloo **Arr:** 10.05 Petersfield **Return** **trains:** 18.20, 19.20 **Recommended train ticket** Off-Peak Day Return to Petersfield · **£25.75 group save/ network rail price** Recommended: Buy a yearly Network Railcard for reduced train prices www.network-railcard.co.uk **Meeting Point:** Waterloo Station - In front of Information Desk by the big Pret **REVIEWS** [Trip Advisor](https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attraction_Review-g186338-d19994843-Reviews-AAA_Hiking_Outdoor_Group-London_England.html) \| [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/AAAHikingUK/reviews) \| [MeetUp](https://www.meetup.com/aaa-outdoor-hiking-adventure-travel/feedback-overview/) **PRICE INCLUDES** · Guided hike planned and led by an experienced AAA leader, trained in Outdoor First Aid. **PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE** · Travel costs · Lunch, drinks or any refreshments · PayPal fees **RECOMMENDED KIT LIST** [(](https://mailchi.mp/aaalondongroup.com/kitlist)complete list[)](https://mailchi.mp/aaalondongroup.com/kitlist) · Suitable hiking shoes or boots · Packed lunch and snacks · Water - 2 litres recommended · Waterproof jacket and trousers (Please no jeans!) · Warm windproof layer e.g. Down/Primaloft/Fleece · Wicking base layer e.g. Polyester/Tencel/Merino **CANCELLING/REFUNDS** If you can no longer join the hike, please message the Host listed on here, and update your RSVP status to 'Not going', to allow others to take your place.

✨ Тур в Зачарованный лес, где когда-то Кристофер Робин водил дружбу с медвежонком, который всегда «немного того, на диете». **Ashdown Forest** — это не просто зелёный массив в графстве Восточный Суссекс. Это место, где стирается грань между вымыслом и реальностью, где каждый поворот тропинки может вывести к мостику, с которого Винни-Пух и Пятачок бросали палочки, соревнуясь в знаменитой игре «Пустяки». Этот древний лес хранит память о веках. Когда-то здесь звучали рога королевской охоты: ещё в XIII веке лес обнесли частоколом, чтобы монархи и знать могли преследовать оленей. Генрих VIII, охотясь в этих угодьях, приезжал в соседний замок Hever ухаживать за Анной Болейн. Но главное чудо ждёт вас не в истории, а в самом пейзаже. В конце апреля лес начинает пробуждаться особенно трепетно. Воздух прозрачен и свеж, а среди прошлогодней листвы и молодой зелени, в тенистых и влажных уголках, уже появляются первые **лесные колокольчики**. 💐А после того, как вы надышитесь смоляным воздухом и тишиной веков, мы перенесёмся в совершенно иной мир — мир цвета и аромата. Всего в нескольких милях отсюда раскинулась **ферма Tulleys**, где апрель бушует яркими красками из более чем **полутора миллионов тюльпанов**. Здесь, на знаменитом фестивале тюльпанов, цветут более 100 различных сортов — алые, жёлтые, розовые, фиолетовые, почти чёрные тюльпаны тянутся к солнцу, создавая ковёр такой интенсивности, что глазам не верится. Над полями возвышается 33-метровое колесо обозрения — поднимитесь на нём, и перед вами откроется фантастическая панорама: разноцветные полосы тюльпанов, уходящие к самому горизонту, словно сам Весенний художник опрокинул сюда все свои краски. А воздух наполнен не только сладковатым ароматом цветов, но и живой музыкой — по тюльпановым тропам бродят уличные музыканты, даря каждому уголку полей свою неповторимую мелодию. Местные жители называют Tulleys «цветущим великолепием» — и действительно, когда бродишь среди этих сотен тысяч бутонов под аккомпанемент акустической гитары, кажется, что попал на полотно импрессиониста, которое ожило и зазвучало. Вы сможете вдыхать тонкий запах весны, делать снимки, попробовать настоящие голландские лакомства и даже собрать свой собственный букет, чтобы увезти частицу этого праздника с собой. Это путешествие — не просто прогулка. Это возможность за один день прикоснуться к вечности и к мимолётной, но такой прекрасной весне! 📝План поездки: 📍**08:45 Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62),** 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍10:30 — 12:00 Остановка в лесу, где растут колокольчики (Ashdown Forest) 📍12:00 — 13:00 Время для обеда в кафе парка 📍13:15 — 16:30 Фестиваль тюльпанов на [Tulleys Farm](https://www.tulipfarm.co.uk/) ([от £16.95](https://tulleystulipfarm.digitickets.co.uk/tickets?_gl=1*1lod871*_gcl_au*MTAxNjk4MTE1NS4xNzcyNDQwMDM3*_ga*ODE2OTgyNTYyLjE3NzI0NDAwMzg.*_ga_2LMD6CBF79*czE3NzMyMzQyOTMkbzkkZzEkdDE3NzMyMzQyOTMkajYwJGwwJGgw), бронируйте заранее на слоты с 13:30) 📍18:00 London, Hammersmith 👣 Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌Не включено: ❌Входные билеты: цены указаны в плане путешествия ❌Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌[Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌[Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒Что взять с собой: ☑️Воду/еду по желанию ☑️Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️Мелочь для чаевых и отличное настроение 🙂 ☑️При необходимости не более одной ручной клади весом до 10 кг (40x30x20 см) ✳️Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.
