Free Led Walks At Launch Event – 9 June
On June 9th 3-2-1 Walks is launched in /Rastrick, near Brighouse. They’ve plotted out three routes, all starting from the Space @ Field Lane, a busy community centre with a cafe and its own walking group – the address is The Space, Burnsall Road, Field Lane HD3 3JT.
The 1km route is suitable for wheelchairs, being flat and on pavements with dropped curbs at all crossing points.
At the launch event, on 9 June, you can join led walks at 2pm and 3.30pm, when volunteers will show you round one of the three routes.

- 1km route: a short, wheelchair-friendly 1km round the Field Lane estate, all on smooth pavements with dropped curbs (allowing wheelchair and pram access) at all junctions. A 10 to 15 minute walk.
- 2km route: slightly longer and taking you onto the nearby fields and footpaths, but still relatively level and easy to walk in 20 to 30 minutes
- 3km route: a longer walk through the fields and footpaths before an uphill return along smooth pavements, leading back to The Space @ Field Lane. This walk may take 30 to 45 minutes.
