The walk doesn&#8217;t have to be a monthly commitment. If you care for someone and want a short walk, in good company, join us at Barry Island train station on the last Thursday of every month at 10:30am.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THURSDAY CARERS WALK As a summer heatwave descended over Europe, the carers walkers met at Barry Island in similarly scorching heat.
