In collaboration with Galway sports partnership we will be holding a once off activator poles walk to help people get the feel for it and see if it is something they would participate in. Which will be held in the Palace Grounds next Thursday the 6th.

Activator pole walking is generally considered to be suitable for a wide range of people, including older adults, those recovering from surgery, or individuals with conditions like arthritis, Parkinson's, or MS. The poles provide stability and support, improving posture, flexibility, and balance without being excessively strenuous, making it a safe, low-impact exercise. It may increase energy expenditure and heart rate in people with conditions like COPD.

Requirements : Be able to walk 1km
No major health issues
