Daniel Jones, the creator of the autism and mental health blog livingwithdan.com and author of Living With Aspergers: Daniel’s Story, is inviting Banbury residents to join him.
The weekly walking group, named Walk Walk Talk, has been set up to aid those suffering from mental health difficulties and encourage people to exercise.

Daniel said: “I set up the walking group because I wanted to help those going through a difficult time at the moment.
"Walking is so good for your mental health, while connecting with similar people is my favourite part. If you’re worried about something, struggling to sleep, or feeling low, come along to my walking group; we’d love to see you.
"I also have Asperger's, so creating a group of my own has been extremely difficult, but I hope it continues to grow the way it’s been doing.”
