Energetic, and committed to promoting physical activity and healthy lifestyles. You have good organisational and leadership skills. You enjoy interacting with people and building connexions within your community. Furthermore, you are passionate about the benefits of walking and want to inspire others to join you on the path to better health.
Welcome to Port Macquarie Easy Walkers, a sports club located in the beautiful Port Macquarie-Hastings Council area. Our club is dedicated to promoting physical activity and improving the health and well-being of our members through walking.
Walking is a simple yet powerful form of exercise that has numerous health benefits. Research has shown that walking for just 30 minutes a day can significantly lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Regular walking also helps manage weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels, reduces the risk of certain cancers, and improves balance, coordination, and bone density.
At Port Macquarie Easy Walkers, we believe that walking is not only beneficial for our physical health but also for our mental well-being. Walking in a group allows us to build connexions with like-minded individuals, creating a supportive and encouraging community. Joining a walking group is a great way to meet new people, make friends, and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery of our area.
Whether you are an experienced walker or just starting your fitness journey, our club welcomes individuals of all fitness levels and ages. We offer a range of walking groups to cater to different abilities and interests. From gentle strolls along the beach to more challenging hikes in the nearby rainforest, there is something for everyone.
To get started, simply search for a walking group near you on our website or social media platforms. You can search by suburb, town, or postcode to find a group within your preferred radius. Once you find a group that suits your needs, register, and contact the Walk Organiser for more information and to join their walks.
If you are passionate about walking and would like to make a difference in your community, consider becoming a Volunteer Walk Organiser. As a Walk Organiser, you will lead and organise walking groups, plan routes and meeting places, and welcome new members to your group. You will receive training, ongoing support, and access to an online profile to manage your group. Additionally, you will be recognised and rewarded through our Walker Recognition Scheme.
