During Queensland Seniors Month we sponsored a great event partnering with Bundaberg Council and Wide Bay Hospital and Health Service at the Seniors Walk of Life!
The Bundaberg event on 24 October brought together 70 seniors from the community and local residential aged care homes enjoying community connections.
Together, the event focused on staying active and falls prevention, with participants enjoying a series of short group walks, harnessing social interaction teamed with numerous health benefits.
Walking can help seniors improve balance, strengthen muscles, and enhance cardiovascular health. It’s also a great way to boost mood and reduce feelings of isolation.
The day was filled with fun as participants engaged in dancing and chair exercise sessions, creating an atmosphere of joy and camaraderie—evidenced by the endless smiles in the photos!
Country to Coast, QLD also provided buckets to keep all of our senior participants sun safe during the event.
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us for this enjoyable day dedicated to health, community spirit, and the many benefits of walking. Let’s keep moving and grooving together!
