Activator Pole Programme

Age Friendly Ireland

WHO Theme: Respect And Social Inclusion, Social Participation
Programme: Laois
Status: Ongoing

Laois Sports Partnership deliver an activator pole (Nordic walking sticks) programme to older people in the county. Implementation of level 5 restrictions meant this had to go online. Participants don’t own their own poles and there was no practical way for Laois Sports Partnership to loan their poles out. So the Laois Age Friendly Programme purchased 50 pairs to be given to older people interested in the programme.
