15 Buckden Roundabout April 2021 For Your Diary Huntingdonshire Health Walk Scheme APRIL 2021 The Health Walk scheme continues, at the time of writing, to be unable to offer face - to - face meetings due to the pandemic: therefore there is no plan for walks in April.

Meanwhile, accessing the HDC website on and after 1st April should show the current situation; the details are: - huntingdonshire.gov.uk/leisure/healthwalks/ Contact telephone number 01480 388469 may also be open. From 29th March, the "Rule of Six" for outside activities was due to have been re - introduced so, if this has hap- pened - please check carefully - opportunities should be available for up to 6 people to meet together for "local" walking. However, as far as is known, the Health Walk scheme will not just yet be up - and - running. MONDAY CLUB We are a social group of ladies who meet fortnightly at 2.30pm in the Millard Suite at Buckden Village Hall. At each meeting we either have a guest speaker or par- ticipate in an activity of our own. We then enjoy a cup of tea and biscuits, and participate in a raffle.
