Stop Scrolling, start strolling Friday 2 September for Walk to Work Day Supporting Diabetes Australia.
Walk to Work Day supporting Diabetes Australia is on Friday 2 September 2022 and encourages employees and employers to build regular walking into their daily routines.
With millions of Australians living with all types of diabetes or at risk of type 2 diabetes there has never been a better time to get walking, and start on the path to a healthier workplace and a healthier you.
Celebrating its 22nd year, the annual event encourages workplaces to walk to and from work, take a walk at lunchtime, and use the stairs instead of the escalator or elevator.
It’s easy to get involved:
If you can't walk all the way, use public transport and get off the bus, train, tram or ferry a few stops earlier and walk the rest of the way to work
If you do need to drive, leave the car a kilometer or two from your destination and walk the rest of the way
Take a half-hour walk at lunchtime
Where possible use the stairs rather than escalators or the lift
If you sit at a desk, be sure to get up and walk around at least once every hour
Get up and talk to your colleagues instead of sending them emails
If working from home, make sure you take a break and take a walk throughout the day
Rather than holding meetings around a table or over zoom, host a "walking meeting"
Challenge your work mates and compare your step stats in the lead up to the day
All work places are encouraged to get involved in Walk to Work Day Supporting Diabetes Australia.
