📍 Kingsway Gardens, Samaritans gardens

Getting outside is good for the body and the soul, and its important to look after yourself especially in winter.

This week we are suggesting a walk around Kingsway Gardens, which is a park located at the western entrance to the industrial garden town of Scunthorpe.

The Gardens are beautifully kept and have interesting features that are great to look at even in winter, there is also a well-equipped children’s playground!

In July 2021 the centrepiece of the gardens has been re-planted in honour of the Samaritans and the life of its founder, Barton-born Chad Varah.
