Are you the owner of Queanbeyan Town Park Walkers?
Queanbeyan Town Park Walkers is a vibrant sports club located in Queanbeyan, Australia. Our club is dedicated to promoting the benefits of walking for physical and mental health, as well as fostering a sense of community among our members.
Walking is a simple yet effective way to improve overall health and well-being. Research has shown that walking for an average of 30 minutes a day can significantly reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes by 30 to 40 percent. Additionally, regular walking can help manage weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels, reduce the risk of certain cancers, maintain bone density, and improve balance and coordination.
At Queanbeyan Town Park Walkers, we offer a supportive and structured walking programme that complements the care provided by healthcare professionals. Whether individuals prefer to walk alone or in a group, our motivational programme is designed to help them meet the national physical activity guidelines and improve their overall health.
Members of our club have experienced remarkable transformations through walking. Maria, a group walker, shares her inspiring story of overcoming obesity, diabetes, and blood pressure issues through consistent walking. By starting with just 5,000 steps a day and gradually increasing to 15,000 steps, Maria was able to shed excess weight, manage her health conditions, and improve her mental and physical well-being.
Joining our walking community is simple. Interested individuals can join our Facebook group to connect with other like-minded walkers in the Queanbeyan area. They can also search for a walking group within a specified radius and register to become a member. Our walk organisers are the backbone of our programme and play a crucial role in planning routes, deciding meeting times and places, and welcoming new members.
We also offer a Walker Recognition Scheme to reward and acknowledge individuals who demonstrate commitment and dedication to walking. By leading and organising a walking group, our volunteers contribute to the well-being of the community and create a positive impact on public health.
To become a Volunteer Walk Organiser and lead a Heart Foundation Walking group, individuals need to be over the age of 18, friendly, enthusiastic, and passionate about promoting a healthy lifestyle. Our club provides training, access to an online profile for managing the group, ongoing communications, and invitations to various events and workshops.
