To encourage personal fitness stamina, strength and suppleness through participation in regular walking exercise.

Our main beneficiaries are the walkers themselves, be they members of BDWF or adhoc participants in STAR practice walks. We encourage our people to get fit, to get out and appreciate Swindon and the surrounding areas on foot, to give back to the local community by raising sponsorship by completing organised walking events - RAF Lyneham 2 day March and the Nijmegen Vierdaagse. We also work with local schools to give their students a chance to challenge themselves both physically and mentally.

Get fit and set yourself the ultimate physical and mental challenge. Walk on your own or as part of a team, it's up to you. BDWF/ STAR will encourage and support you all the way.
