Social Activities
Building community, meeting new people, fostering life-giving relationships.
For more information about any of these activities, get in touch with our community development worker at emma@stpaulscambridge.org.uk.
Botanic Gardens Wellbeing Walk
1st Thursday of the month
A friendly opportunity for anyone living with poor mental or physical health or disability to spend time with others and in nature.
Next walk: Thursday 1st October
We meet at the Station Road entrance to the Gardens at 11am.
The walk is free to attend thanks to the Botanic Gardens community membership scheme.
You are welcome to join us for lunch back at St Paul's afterwards (more information here).
Thursday Crafts
Thursdays 11am-12pm (all except 1st of the month)
We are a friendly, informal group which meet at 11am on Thursdays for fun creative activities. No particular artistic skills or experience needed!
It is open to all adults, with a warm welcome to anyone with disabilities of any form, mental health challenges, or who feels isolated and would like to meet new people in a safe setting.
All activities are free, no need to book - just turn up! You are welcome to stay for Lunch Club afterwards, which is £4 for a homecooked two course meal.
Trips and Outings
We organise regular day trips and smaller outings, usually on Thursdays. Some are free and for some we ask for a contribution towards the cost of the trip.
Past outings have included visiting Anglesey Abbey and Shepreth Wildlife Park (see the meerkats!), as well as afternoon tea in the Orchard Tea Garden in Grantchester.
Upcoming outings:
Karaoke at Cambridge Leisure Park: Thursday 22nd October at 11am
Ely Cathedral Christmas Market: Thursday 19th November. Travel by minibus, limited spaces - or travel independently and meet us there.
Christmas Show at the Junction: Thursday 17th December at 11am
For more details or to book, please contact emma@stpaulscambridge.org.uk or visit the St Paul's office. Please note that priority is given to regular Thursday Group members.
Our community programme is generously supported by The National Lottery Community Fund.
Our 2026-27 trips and outings are made possible by a grant from Cambridge City Council.
