Lets WALK for NETs!

  • March 31, 2020

Hop to it!  It’s almost Easter and in collaboration with exercise app 10,000 Steps we have developed a virtual walk for our community.

Keeping social distancing in mind (making sure you stay 1.5 metres apart), grab a close friend or family member and get out in the fresh air. Walk around your streets, your back yard, or to the shop for essentials. 

Set your own personal walking goals, with your own health in mind, but let’s each aim for 5,000 steps a day! Your team at NeuroEndocrine Cancer Australia will be walking alongside you, so let’s do this together! #LetsWALKforNETs

Our challenge kicks off on Easter Friday, 10th April and will run for 6 weeks. Hop to it!!

Keep a healthy body and mind

Grab a close friend or family member and get out into the fresh air, walk around your streets, your backyard, or to the shop for essentials and track those steps, let's all aim for 5,000 steps a day!

Set up healthy habits
