The first meet-up involved just two people - Mr Johnson and one other man.
The club now has about 250 active members and is made up of a diverse range of ages, religions, races and backgrounds, who talk about "every problem known to man", Mr Johnson said.The exhibition will profile members of the club and how walking has helped them He believes it can be hard for men to "take that first step" and join one of the walks, but the club's quick growth showed that it is "needed in all communities".
The club hosts walks in Finchley, Greenwich, Southwark, Sutton, Upminster, Wallington and Woolwich throughout the week.He hopes to expand the club into every borough in London by the end of 2025. The photo exhibition will be held on 19 May at the Millwall Community Trust, Bermondsey, with the images taken by one of the club's members.
