13.01.2022 Whats are your Sunday self care plans?

13.01.2022 To our Hike 4 Happiness Community, We believe perhaps now, more than ever, our walks are needed to get people out of their houses and connecting with each other. However, we have had to make some tough decisions to ensure the health and safety of you, our community and the Australian community at large. While our events are not yet prohibited, we believe we have a responsibility to do what we can to limit the spread and look after our community. It is therefore only right t...hat we postpone our walks indefinitely to ensure we are playing our part in slowing the spread of COVID-19. We are now working on new ways we can stay connected during this time of physical distancing and look after our mental wellbeing. So stay tuned to our Facebook page and Instagram account! We will continue to monitor the situation and work with health services to determine when we can start again. Until then, pause for a moment, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Reach out to your friends and family. Check in on your neighbours. Go for a walk around the block or yard. We will see this through. You are not alone.
