Hi Mike, this another Mike replying. We used to have quite a few members in that neck of the woods, but they either moved or stopped or formed separate cliques, so I'm glad about your post. I'm love to do more walks in that region, such as the area traversed by the Gritstone and Moorlands Trails, Churnet Valley, Roaches, western edges of the Peak. Problem for me is that usually I only have time during the week, other than a few unpredictable weekends.

There isn't really much to advise. Put an invite on for a Wednesday or Thursday, choose a nice location and reasonable distance, and hope for the best. There ought to be some interest.
Hi Mike, welcome to the site. I live in Shropshire close to the Staffordshire border so easy for me to access the areas you are considering. I can do weekends and during the weekend so will look out for future invites and hopefully can make some of them🙂
Hi Mike. I'm in Chester so would certainly look out for walks in the areas you've suggested. I work part-time but could perhaps be flexible for walks during the week. As the other Mike says, put up an invite with a definite date. That way, people can say for sure if they can make it 🙂
Hi- I’m from the Lakes but frequently visit South Derbyshire to see my mum. It might be I would be interested in a shorter walk but it would need to be at the weekend I’m afraid. Anyway I thought I’d throw that into the pot! Thanks for organising!
Looks like there's enough to start a small core of local walkers Mike. Generally Invites start slow, often with just a couple of you, but its interesting how it can expand to a group of regulars, with a crowded photo appearing the the pictures section posed on a bridge. 😀 I'd encourage you to post a date or two and see who bites.
Hi Mike, a little late replying but I would be intersted in joining a walk. I don't work on Fridays and I have school holidays off - I will try to check in more regularly to see if there is a walk posted!
