About Us

The Club was founded in 1953 when some 74 people attended the inaugural meeting. The Club’s first official ramble was in January 1954 in the Blakedown area. Since that time the Club has continued to grow and now has a membership of around 200, from Stourbridge, Kingswinford, Brierley Hill, Kidderminster, Halesowen and surrounding areas, although there's usually around 15-20 people on a walk.

Coffee Mornings

The Coffee Mornings have proved very popular giving members the chance to catch up with old friends and everyone is welcome including partners.

We meet at Age Concern, The Elton Centre, St Johns Road, Stourbridge on the second Thursday of each month so please feel free to drop in at any time between 10.30 and 12.00 for a cuppa and chat.
