About Us

Where It All Began

Hebden’s Talking Geese was founded in 2025 by Charlie, Max and Emily, three friends who knew that running wasn’t just about fitness. It was about connection, conversation, and community.

Running has always been more than just exercise for us. Both Max and I have faced our own struggles with mental health, and we know how isolating it can feel. We also know how powerful movement, fresh air, and good conversation can be in turning things around.

That’s why we started Hebden’s Talking Geese, not just as a way to stay active, but as a space where people can come together, feel supported, and improve their well-being through connection.

For us, this isn’t just a running group. It’s a way to give back to the community, create a space where there’s no pressure, no judgment, and no expectations, and remind people that they’re never alone in their journey.

And so, Hebden’s Talking Geese was born.

What We’re About

There’s no membership, no race schedules, and no pressure. Just a group of people who run together, talk together, and support each other.

We believe in community, bringing people together through movement and conversation. We believe in mental well-being, using running as a way to feel better, both physically and mentally. We believe in friendship, creating a space where you can show up alone but leave knowing someone new. Most importantly, we believe in inclusivity. No matter your pace or experience, you are welcome here.

Every run is at a beginner-friendly, conversational pace, so there’s always room to chat, share stories, and enjoy the journey.
