Today is the day to celebrate International; take a walk in the park day. Over the last year, I have used both parks in Chippenham to walk, read a book or take photos with my camera. These spaces became a haven for me with my Mental Health. Just sitting, relaxing, reading my book under a tree, or walking to get exercise and taking photos on how the parks change through the seasons.


The website for International takes a walk in the park day; explains what it is about.


"National Take A Walk In The Park Day on March 30th each year encourages us to stretch our legs on our favorite trail or at our neighborhood park. After a long busy day, a calming and therapeutic way to relax would be a nice, leisurely walk in the park.

Taking a walk at a local park is an excellent way to clear one’s mind from the stresses of the day, re-energize, and at the same time improve health.

During a walk, the opportunity to capture a beautiful photograph, compose an original poem, or have an uninterrupted conversation may arise. The chance to lose track of time and run into a familiar face could occur, too. When taking a walk in the park, all sorts of pleasant surprises could blossom." Here is the link for more information.


Here are some of my favorite photos of the two parks in Chippenham.
