The Gay Outdoor Club is an activity club for the LGBTQ+ community. There are local groups across the UK and also nationwide specialist groups such as climbing, caving and skiing. In Cambridgeshire the Club organises a countryside walk of about 7-8 miles most months.
This activity is good for wellbeing because
- you can meet and chat with other LGBTQ+ people in a safe environment;
- being outdoors is energising;
