On 11 October 2026, a morning stroll event called Sip ‘n’ Stroll will start at Bessy’s Sweet Bakes van on South Shields Promenade. Participants can gather a drink or sweet treat before walking up towards the cliffs and back down again. The event is designed for neurodivergent people to coexist and build community without the need to mask.
Let’s grab a drink and a sweet treat from Bessy’s Sweet Bakes to take on a morning stroll along South Shields Promenade
'Tis the season of pumpkin spice lattes and Autumnal strolls. What better way to enter the new season than coexisting with other neurodivergent people, soaking up the last rays of seaside sun and sipping on a cinnamon hot chocolate. Sip ‘n’ Stroll is a zero-socialising-pressure event. This is a chance for us neurodivergent people to coexist and get that community feeling without the need to mask.
We will start at Bessy's Sweet Bakes van near the cliffs end of the South Shields Promenade. You can grab a warm or iced beverage, or a sweet treat - whatever floats your boat.
We will then walk up towards the cliffs that overlook the sea, and come back down again to finish in the same place that we started. This is a lush opportunity for us to get to know each other - yapping is very much welcome, and so is just walking along in silence! This is YOUR time, to fill up your cup in whichever way feels good to you.
I am SO excited to see you! I just know we are going to have such a lush time together!
