When on Dog Walk duty, don't be messing with Rosa.
Here giving me the look 👀 are we going for a walk or taking photos of the runners!
Love little Rosa who visits us weekly with owner Roger! Apparently squirrels 🐿🐿 don't take her fancy despite scampering around her.

Week 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣

Welcome to everyone for joining us on Sunday, sharing in our social element of the sessions. ☕️ 🫖 🌼 🪴

What a great way to celebrate our 200 Run Event and 4th Anniversary in partnership with Birmingham Settlement Nature and Birmingham Settlement Nature & Wellbeing Centre

Well if you were not at the Red Shed this Sunday, you missed the warm, toasty service from Susan and Karen dishing up toasted Tea Cakes, Fruit leaf and sconces with thanks to Incredible Surplus for supplying.

Giving recognition to Bunny Bread, artist who sadly passed away who did the artwork on the Sail Birmingham wall on the Reservoir.
Our group gave recognition in passing today! RIP 🙏

The whole site is amazing adventure playground and we recommend a walk around the Site to see what's new.

What an adventure around the Site from gardening plots, wormeries, composting and more. Why not have a look around next time you're around at the far end of the field.

We hope to see you again soon! 😉

Thanks to Daniel for serving in the cafe. Don't forget to give the cafe volunteers a as it gets very busy and there's a lot of work behind the scenes..

We are grateful to Incredible Surplus for continuing to support us weekly providing us with treats and drinks.
https://incrediblesurplus.org/

To support us, you can volunteer, give a financial donation or scan a QR code to donate online or bring some biscuits or treats for our group.

Thank you for your contributions this week.

Yoga is available on Sundays after the Run/ Walk sessions in the dome by Michelle local resident and qualified instructor.
Subject to availability - booking required.
There is a charge for this activity and discounts available for booking group sessions.

We welcome our canine friends, they must be on a lead and with their owners at all times.

Social engagement is how a person connects with others in a community or even online, which can be seen in activities such as volunteering. When you become involved in spaces like these, you create a sense of inclusion and a purpose for yourself.

Please feel free to join us at the Red Shed at the new Birmingham Settlement Nature & Wellbeing Centre at the Edgbaston Reservoir.

For future details of the site, please contact Birmingham Settlement

Our last Sunday in October with leaves almost bare on the trees and the winter chill setting in. Weather staying dry for our run session.
Quite a few regulars away but we still had a great time with Liz leading us in a Halloween 🎃 spooky warm up in the dome and Steve and Liz supporting the runners out on course.
