Devon Area Members Day 2025

After the successful first Devon Area Members Day in 2024, wonderfully hosted by the North Devon Group, based on the ‘Rest and be Thankful’ pub, at Wheddon Cross, there is another event for members to meet each other and join three walks. The Exeter & District Group have kindly offered to host the event this year.

Okehampton has been chosen for this year's event, and the London Inn has offered use of an upstairs room, where we may leave stuff during the day whilst walking. There is no charge for the hire of the room, but they expect us to order food and drink from the bar. There will be free tea and coffee available from a machine at the entrance. Parking is in local pay and display car parks. 

There will be three walks offered by the Exeter & District Group.

1.    A long and moderate 10/11 mile walk.

2.    A medium 7/8 miles walk 

3.    A shorter 5 miles walk, which will incorporate some of Okehampton’s local history

All the walks will leave at 10.30am, further details will be confirmed.

There will also be a Photographic Competition which will be judged independently, for which there will be a £25.00 prize.

The theme for this year’s competition is ‘What makes Devon a special place to walk’.

Photos to be taken between 1 September 2024 and 1 September 2025, maximum of three entries per person. The result will be announced at 10.15am before the walks start.
