Walkies... a word which brings immense joy and much tail wagging from our beloved four legged friends. Walking your dog is a simple, yet powerful way to improve wellbeing. It promotes physical activity, reduces stress and strengthens our bond; all while providing an opportunity to enjoy some fresh air and connect with the beautiful surroundings which Norfolk has to offer.

NPC has chosen to take part in Norfolk and Waveney Mind’s Walkies for Wellbeing, which is the mental health charity’s fundraising challenge for March 2025. We are asking owners to walk their dogs a set distance during the month, and they suggest one of the following distances: 50km, 75km or 100km - it doesn’t matter whether you are a Great Dane or a Chihuahua, you can choose what feels right for you. All funds raised will go towards running essential mental health services in Norfolk and Waveney.

Taking part in Mind's Walkies for Wellbeing will bring staff together fostering gentle competition and team spirit whilst raising vital funds to help support a local charity. As a CIC, this event reflects out commitment to promoting mental health, and encouraging physical and emotional wellbeing - causes that are close to our hearts.
