WAHS Walking Group is a sports club located in the Shire of Northam, dedicated to promoting a healthy and active lifestyle through walking. With a focus on building connexions within the community, the club brings like-minded individuals together to walk towards a healthier heart.
Joining WAHS Walking Group offers numerous benefits for both physical and mental well-being. Walking regularly for an average of 30 minutes a day has been proven to lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes by 30 to 40 percent. It also helps manage weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol, reduces the risk of developing some cancers, and improves balance, coordination, and bone density.
The club welcomes individuals of all fitness levels and backgrounds to join their walking community. Whether you want to go it alone or prefer the motivation and support of a group, WAHS Walking Group has a place for you. By participating in their structured and supportive walking programme, which complements the care provided by healthcare professionals, members can meet the national physical activity guidelines and work towards improving their overall health.
Joining the walking group is simple. By searching for a walking group within a 10 km, 20 km, 25 km, 50 km, or 100 km radius of your location, you can find the nearest group to you. Once you have found a group, you can register and provide some basic information about yourself. The walk organiser of the group will then provide you with all the necessary information to get started.
For those passionate about walking and promoting a healthy lifestyle, WAHS Walking Group offers the opportunity to become a Walk Organiser. As a Walk Organiser, you will plan walking routes, determine meeting places and times for walks, and welcome new members to the group. Training and online profile access will be provided to help you manage your group effectively.
In addition to the physical and mental health benefits of walking, WAHS Walking Group also offers a Walker Recognition Scheme. By participating in this scheme, members can be recognised for their efforts in promoting a healthy lifestyle and improving their own well-being.
