Brought to you by Allbirds
Come join the fun in central London! Here’s why you need to snag your spot on the guestlist…
No matter what your working day might look like, if you often scoff lunch at your desk, skip breaks, clock off feeling absolutely exhausted or find your posture resembles that of a corporate prawn, you’re the inspiration for our latest mission at Stylist.
With a recent survey finding that only 23% of women engage in 30 minutes of exercise five or more times a week (the recommended minimum to have a positive impact on health), we’re committed to helping you escape the grind, reconnect with your purpose and walk away from your work day feeling happier.
Switching off from work and reconnecting with nature even for just half an hour each day can totally transform your mindset and lead to a more fulfilling life. And it doesn’t need to be difficult - you won’t even need a gym kit or an Apple watch.
Welcome to the new Stylist x Allbirds Happy Hour Walk Club. Across a series of three events from April-June in London (on 15 April, 13 May and 3 June), we’re creating a space for like-minded women to meet up, escape the work slog and enjoy a walk through the stunning parks and streets of central London - and there’ll be some special guests, freebies and prizes thrown in for good measure. Here are five reasons why you need to get your ticket, asap…
1. Get out in nature
As hard as it can be to carve time out of the working day for respite, studies show that even just 15 minutes in nature per day is enough to boost your mood, concentration and physical health.
To help you connect with nature in an accessible way, our Happy Hour Walk Clubs are designed as bitesize opportunities for you to meet like-minded women and get those steps in.
Each walk starts from Allbirds’ Covent Garden store, and you’ll be led through some of London’s most picturesque streets, stopping to smell the roses in Victoria Embankment Gardens. With events set for both lunchtime and after work, you can choose what works for you and your schedule. A fun and energising experience, you’ll find that taking the time out can do wonders for the body and mind.
2. Meet VIP guests
Each Happy Hour Walk will give you an opportunity to meet and greet different members of the Stylist editorial team, from our senior writer, Amy Beecham, to our head of brand, Susan Riley.
They’ll be leading the walk with Allbirds’ managing director, Jodie Soussan, and the formidable Sharmadean Reid, MBE.
Before each walk sets off, you’ll have the chance to hear from Reid as she leads an inspirational talk. As one of the most influential (and busy!) business leaders in the UK, Reid’s an advocate for creating a working environment based on trust that empowers people to operate at their optimum level. Her new book, New Methods for Women, reveals her secret formula for lifting up yourself and the women around you, so you’ll be sure to leave the Happy Hour feeling energised.
3. Enjoy exclusive treats and goody bags
Post-walk, enjoy delicious food and snacks from The Salad Project, Punchy and Deliciously Ella.
You’ll also leave the event with an exclusive goody bag stuffed to the brim with Allbirds treats, surprises and more.
4. Be in with a chance of winning big
Three attendees at each Happy Hour Walk will win a pair of Allbirds of their choice. With sustainability at its core, Allbirds is a conscious footwear brand with a purpose.
