Join our Falmouth Seafront walking meet up
Connect with likeminded quieteers for a leisurely daytime walk from Gylly Beach Cafe towards Pendennis Castle, followed by coffee, on Saturday 16th August from 12noon. Please note that this is when the walk starts, we will be aiming to meet 10 minutes earlier.
This Pop Up Meet Up is designed to help you enjoy something you might not normally do with likeminded people, in a calm and gentle way that feels authentic to your true quiet self. It’s a safe space for you to gently stretch your comfort zone as part of a community of quieteers who truly get you.
We can’t wait to walk with you.

Hayley Stanton
Hi, I’m Hayley.
I, too, am a quieter person. As a highly sensitive introvert, I love and appreciate my quiet strengths now, but I spent much of my life not feeling good enough and experiencing social anxiety. I missed so many opportunities and connections because I was afraid of being judged harshly, criticised and rejected –and because I doubted that I had the ‘right’ personality to succeed. Now, I’m passionate about helping quiet people discover their unique qualities, gifts, passions and experiences and explore how best to use these to express themselves more authentically, connect more meaningfully and contribute to their world in a way that works with their quieter or more sensitive nature – and I’d love to connect with you at one of our Meet Ups.
What to Expect
-
It’s okay to talk and it’s okay to be quiet too
We understand that you may prefer to ease into conversation gradually, or that some days you might like to walk quietly and take in the sights and sounds whilst simply being in the company of others. We welcome both quietude and chatter.
-
You can go at your own pace
We'll be walking at a leisurely pace with opportunity to pause along the way, watch the waves, or enjoy some mindful photography. You're invited to walk and join in conversation at a pace that feels good for you.
-
A stunning, vibrant environment
We'll start off by walking from Gylly to Swanpool (dogs can be off-lead for most of that way) and then we'll walk along the front towards Pendennis Castle with the amazing backdrop of the castle on the headland, standing sentinel against the rhythmic tide. Then we'll head back along the Falmouth seafront again, revealing panoramic views of the vast waters - finishing up with another stop for food and drink.
-
A community of understanding
Our gentle-natured team and your fellow quieteers are likely to share similar feelings and experiences with you. So here you can connect with people who truly get you - and feel part of a supportive, welcoming community together.
