HEART AND STROLL 2026 

Come and join our FIRST EVER Heart and Stroll event for all the family.  

(9am - 2pm) 

COMING BACK FOR A SECOND YEAR!!

Heart & Stroll is back for 2026, and this year it’s all about bringing everyone together — families, friends, kids and dogs 🐾

Join us for a relaxed, feel-good 5km walk around Southampton Common, raising vital funds for Heartbeat, supporting people living with heart conditions across our region.

After an incredible event last year, GBHQ is Teaming up with Heartbeat to turn Heart & Stroll into a full community festival, with more fun, more movement, and more to enjoy for all ages.

What’s happening on the day:

• 🚶‍♀️ 5km Heart & Stroll Walk – pram-friendly, child-friendly, dog-friendly, gentle stroll - surprises along the way to keep you entertained.

• 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Families welcome – kids go FREE

• 🐶 Dogs welcome – on leads, of course, and they go FREE

• 🎯 Games & fitness challenges – designed for all abilities

• 🎶 Live bands & entertainment – relaxed festival atmosphere

• 🍔 Food, drinks & community vibes – make a day of it

  
  

This isn’t a race.

It’s about getting outside, moving together, and showing up for a cause that matters, whether that’s walking with your kids, bringing the dog, or just enjoying a positive day with good people.
