Greyhound Walks Hylands Park 2012
The Mayor and Mayoress of Chelmsford lead the 203 hounds off for the annual New Years Day walk at Hylands Park

Greyhound Walks are a group of greyhound and lurcher owners and lovers who regularly meet for an hours stroll, chatter and the sharing of doggy tales in and around Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Hertfordshire.

We always meet on the second Sunday of the month at The Discovery Centre Great Notley Country Park, Braintree, Essex at 10am. We also walk most weekends at other venues in and around our counties, see the Walk Calendar for all our planned walks.

Anyone with a greyhound or lurcher is more than welcome to join us, or anyone who would just like to walk out with greyhounds to see what great pets they make. Maybe even take one for a Test Drive! Just turn up on the day and you'll be made very welcome.

If you join us we ask for all dogs to be kept on the lead at all times, for new owners and walkers to bring their dogs muzzle and to note that we restrict the walks to greyhounds and lurchers only (other sighthounds please contact us). There's no charge but we do have a voluntary contributions bucket. Money collected is used to help cover our running costs and help needy Essex, Suffolk and Hertfordshire greyhounds.

Our aims are to:

  • socialise our greyhounds, lurchers and ourselves!
  • promote and raise awareness of retired greyhounds as family pets.
  • provide assistance through grants and donations to needy Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Hertfordshire greyhounds.
  • support Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Hertfordshire greyhound and lurcher rehoming organisations.
  • support other greyhound and lurcher rehoming organisations who share our aims.
