Events with Girls Who Walk Aberdeen

Our events are all about connection, movement and feeling part of a welcoming community. From gentle social walks to creative workshops, cosy socials and special one-off events, there’s something for everyone — whether it’s your first time joining or you’ve been along before.

You’re always welcome to come along on your own. Many of our members do, and you’ll be met with friendly faces, relaxed vibes and absolutely no pressure.

What to expect

Whether it’s your first event or your fifth, our aim is always the same:

  • to create a relaxed, welcoming space where you can show up exactly as you are.

  • A friendly, inclusive atmosphere — many people come alone, so you’ll never be the only one

  • No pressure to talk or perform — join in as much (or as little) as feels comfortable

  • Gentle introductions at the start of events to help everyone settle in

  • A mix of walks and social activities, from cosy creative sessions to bigger community events

  • Supportive hosts who are always happy to help or chat if you’re feeling nervous

  • Come as you are vibes — comfy clothes, natural conversations, and zero expectations

Our events are designed to help connections happen naturally. You don’t need to be outgoing, fit, or “good at making friends” — just open to giving it a go.
