Walk and Wheel Gateshead

Walk and Wheel Gateshead is a new social prescribing programme to help people in Gateshead get moving. Services include: 

  • assisted walking and cycling programmes designed to improve fitness and confidence
  • safe walking and cycling routes in the local area
  • guided one to one and group walks and bike rides
  • cycling sessions for beginners with equipment provided

The Walk and Wheel team will be delivering weekly walking sessions from GP practices and intend to use Warm Spaces as stop-off points for light refreshments to encourage travel to, and between, multiple Warm Spaces within people’s local areas.
