HOC runs a programme of indoor and outdoor (field) events each year (restrictions permitting) and we are always pleased to welcome and help new members.  We offer a range of Field events (with limited numbers) which can be booked in advance - listed below. Indoor events are held between September and March and where possible are face to face. Alternatively we hold meetings by Zoom. The charge for Indoor events from September 2025 will be £2 for Members and £3 for non-Members.

Field Events

  • Notices will give Ordnance Survey map references (found in the extended blurb section) and will also advise on the level of difficulty of the walk, indicating distance and gradients.

  • Members should take suitable food, clothing, a first-aid pack (and a torch for evening meetings) or as advised for individual meetings.

  • Please do not bring dogs to any of the Field events.

  • We encourage car sharing when travelling to distant events to be as environmentally friendly as possible.  We offer a reduction in costs for any members who participate in car sharing - please get in touch for more details. 

For extra information about any field event contact the meeting Leader, email Stephanie Greenwood Field Events Coordinator, or check our Social media for any updates.
