Bosworth Walking Group has c48 members but about 25 walk each week. We are centred on the large village of Market Bosworth in Hinckley and Bosworth District in Leicestershire, England. There is currently a yearly subscription fee of £1 (depending on funds) due from July 2024 to cover insurance. We aim to cover our insurance costs and insurance excess but not to make a profit. Other funds are raised from social events for a social fund in order to send cards and a gift on significant birthdays or if a member is in hospital etc.
WEATHER. Please keep an eye on your email the day before the walk as weather conditions or other reason may mean a walk location can change.
