Welcome to Stepping Out with Carers

About us

We offer scenic, sociable, rejuvenating walks to carers and the people they care for at gorgeous locations around the UK to foster health, happiness and new friendships. Our walks at every venue are graded to cater equally for those who use a wheelchair or have other mobility issues or those who fancy a good yomp. Our offer includes transport for those who would not otherwise be able to attend.

Step Out with Us

Carers and the people they care for are welcome to join us at any of our walks in their area. See our contact page to book - and you’ll soon connect to a human. Our Stepping Out walks, including lunch, are free.

Volunteer with Us

Get more out of your regular walking by joining us as a volunteer. Open to anyone interested, particular carers who are no longer caring and would enjoy contributing to their local community.

Make a donation

Help us to continue to provide wonderful walks in beautiful places for people who often need a break from the stresses & isolation of their daily lives.

Happy carer feedback

They really look forward to it!

"For some carers it is the only exercise or chance to really get out into the fresh air that they have each month, so they really look forward to it. Often walks involve information about the area, including the history, which is always appreciated."

"Absolutely loved it. The scenery, the deer, the gardens, everything was perfect! The volunteers looked after us so well and were very knowledgeable"

The memory keeps you going for days

"I always tell new girls who come on Stepping Out walks that when they go home on the minibus they’ll feel just like you do when you see a fabulous musical. Happy and lighter. The memory keeps you going for days. And some of the girls, by the way, are over 90."

The walks have been a lifeline to me!

“The walks have been a lifeline to me. It was recommended to me when I was suffering depression after the death of my husband. The lovely places we go with Stepping Out, the physical activity and being with such nice people has done wonders for me. I don’t need to see my GP any more about depression.”
