A fun, free way for parents to get moving

In the busy whirl of everyday family life, it can be tricky to find a time for exercise. 

Walking is great way for parents to stay active and Heart Foundation Walking groups provide a fun and social way for parents to meet up and walk together regularly. Once they get going, Heart Foundation Walking groups are rewarded for their walking with a recognition scheme and regular newsletters packed with health information. 

Please share our key messages with your parent and school communities and download the promotional materials below for your newsletter or social media pages. Contact us at walking@heartfoundation.org.au or call 13 11 12 to find out more.
