LED & Honiton Memory Café Celebrate 10 Years of Wellbeing Walks
For the past ten years, LED Community Leisure has had the privilege of supporting one of Honiton’s most uplifting community initiatives, the Honiton Memory Café Wellbeing Walks. What began as a simple monthly stroll has grown into a decade‑long tradition of connection, confidence‑building and shared joy for people living with dementia and the carers who support them. These walks are more than just gentle exercise. They are moments of calm, companionship and familiarity, a chance to enjoy the outdoors, meet friends, and feel part of something meaningful.
120 Walks. Every Season. Every Weather. Every Smile.
Over the last decade, the group has completed an incredible 120 walks.
Sunshine, showers, blustery winds, nothing has stopped this determined and cheerful group from getting out and exploring the beautiful landscapes Devon has to offer. From local routes to adventures further afield, the walkers have travelled right across the county, even venturing as far as the stunning Roadford Lake. Each walk brings new sights, new conversations and new memories.
And of course, no Wellbeing Walk would be complete without the group’s favourite tradition: A well‑earned cup of tea and a slice of cake at the end. It’s a small ritual that brings comfort, routine and a chance to reflect on the day together.
Supporting People Living With Dementia — and Those Who Care for Them
The Wellbeing Walks offer a safe, relaxed and welcoming space for people living with dementia to enjoy gentle activity at their own pace. They also provide vital support for carers, giving them time to connect with others who understand the challenges and rewards of caring for a loved one. The group’s warmth, patience and sense of humour have created a community where everyone feels valued and included. LED is incredibly proud to have played a part in supporting this environment over the past decade.
A Partnership We’re Proud Of
At LED Community Leisure, our mission has always been to help people feel better and get more out of life and the Honiton Memory Café embodies that mission perfectly. Their dedication, resilience and kindness have made these walks a highlight of our community wellbeing work.
We are honoured to have supported this group for the last 10 years, and we look forward to many more years of walking, talking, laughing and exploring together.
