Speakers and education sessions

Step Ahead members can join in on organised walks at all our bases. These take about an hour and offer an enjoyable and social chance for exercise.

Step Ahead invites guest speakers to come and chat about their work at all of our locations. These can be interesting presentations from professionals who work in amazing jobs, or they can often be extremely useful educational sessions about everything from budgeting advice to healthy eating and keeping homes warm through winter on a budget. 

These speaking sessions are not regular scheduled events, so keep an eye on the newsletter and the programmes to look out for upcoming speakers.
