Founded in 1991, we are a thriving Group based in Sutton Coldfield and part of the Ramblers' Association.  We have over 395 members and offer a wide variety of events to suit most age groups and abilities.

Our walks vary in length from 6 to 14 miles and cover the counties of Staffordshire, Derbyshire, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire and the West Midlands.  Monthly, trips to areas of outstanding natural beauty further a field are made by coach and, occasionally, walking weekends are organised in the UK.  The Group actively supports and promotes the aims of the Ramblers' Association.

The Ramblers' Association exists to facilitate, for the benefit of everyone, the enjoyment and discovery that walking outdoors can bring; and to promote respect for the life of the countryside. The Association encourages walking; protects rights of way; defends the beauty of the countryside; and has campaigned for many years for freedom to roam over uncultivated, open country. The association is a democratic, voluntary organisation, registered as a charity (no.1093577).

In 1946 Ramblers Holidays were set up by a band of keen RA members with the idea that if they could operate walking holidays perhaps any excesses made could support the Association.
