FULL - Social Walk, Games & Pub Trip | Southwark Park
**Spring is here and to make the most of the amazing colours of the season starting to come into bloom, we've got your Sunday sorted with our latest Social Walk and Pub trip!**
And for this month's social walk, we'll be hiking from Southwark Park to Waterloo.
To kick things off in Southwark Park - you'll be allocated a group/team for an initial mix of fun games designed to help you break the ice and get to know your fellow walkers a little better.
We’ll then set off on our 2-3 hour hike wandering past the serene channels and lakes of Canada Water, Stave Hill Ecological Park and the wild and rustic Russia Dock Woodland.
We will before heading west along the River Thames to Waterloo, past some of the many of the famous sights of the capital, such as the Tower of London, London Bridge and Shakespeare's Globe.
Best of all, we’ll be ending up at one of our favourite pubs near the Southbank, where we’ll be dusting off our **huge collection of board games for you to enjoy.**
And so you’ll be able to rest your legs and have a couple of drinks, get to know your fellow 20s and 30s, and play some games.
Owing to capacity at the pub, we will sadly be having to cap numbers and so do make sure you nab your place as soon as you can - as we will be having to turn off RSVPS when we’re nearing the capacity limit.
