Sheffield Wildlife Trust is running a woodlland Walk this Sunday 22nd October 11.00am-1.00pm at Wyming Brook Nature Reserve at Lodge Moor (meet at Redmires Rd Car Park for 10.30am).

The walk is with 'Ziggy' a local fungi expert, who'll be interpreting mushrooms and toadstool and other fungi and BBC Radio Sheffield's Jimmy Carol (an ex-gamekeeper) will be recording material for a BBC Radio Sheffield Woodland Walks Special programme to be broadcast at Christmas for the BBC's Breathing Places campaign. see www.bbc.co.uk/breathingplaces

All welcome ....and there's more organised walks for more info call 0114 267 5444

PS: Don't forget the big event for Breast Cancer Sat 28th Oct 10-4 Tudor Square, Sheffield call the number above for more info.

Andy, you may have more luck at the walking group - look at 'Sheffield Groups' and the Walker's Group section.

Oh, I love Wyming Brook and I've met Ziggy before! :)

Unfortunately, workload means I have to ration myself to one walk a week and I'm already out on Saturday. This sounds like a good one for people who don't want to hike miles. I'd recommend it, even though I'll be slaving over a hot paint pot.

I might pop along because I love Wyming Brook and it would be nice to catch up with Ziggy again

Thanks for all the replies to this.

Can you believe this 96 people showed up this morning!..... and Ziggy was on top form as was our very own Jimmy Carol (2-5.30pm weekdays BBC Radio Sheffield )- a really lovely morning.

One young man caught a really small frog I've never seen one so small.

Best wishes to everyone who showed up

Only 50's & 60's and retro punks!

Does any one fancy helping me organise the Breast Cancer walk for the new year to be serious for a moment
