The South East London Suicide Bereavement Service invite people bereaved by suicide to join us for a gentle walk & talk around Brockwell Park in Lambeth on Thursday 27th June.
Anyone who has lost someone important to them, either to suicide or suspected suicide, is very welcome.
If this is your first walk with us, please don’t feel daunted or apprehensive about joining on your own. You will quickly find yourself in a friendly, understanding group.
The walk
The walk will be between 2-3 miles long and should take around 45 minutes. We will stay together as a group throughout the walk.
We hope this will be a relaxed and welcoming opportunity to meet other people who have been through a similar experience, as well as getting some fresh air and exercise to support our wellbeing.
Meeting point
We will meet inside the Dulwich Road entrance at the 'Welcome to Brockwell Park' sign, just opposite the entrance to Brockwell Park Car Park. Our walk leaders, Ian and Ayah, will be there from 1.15pm and will be standing by the sign.
Please arrive in time for a 1.30pm start. We will eventually return to the cafe, where you are welcome to stay for a tea/coffee and continue chatting.
Getting there
The nearest station is Herne Hill (Southeastern, Thameslink) and there are limited parking spaces in Brockwell Park Car Park (free for 2 hours and £3.50/hr thereafter).
Please note that:
- This walk is not suitable if you cannot walk unaided.
- There are public toilet facilities in the park.

We look forward to welcoming you on the 27th June!
