Steps to LivingWell


The Cardiac Health Foundation of Canada is a charitable organization supporting cardiac rehabilitation, prevention and education across Canada raising $11 Million since 1965.

 The Cardiac Health Foundation of Canada’s WALK OF LIFE will be taking place on Saturday, May 30th, 2015 at the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto marking its 50th anniversary.

There is no denying it: exercise is good for you! Whether you are a casual walker to the more serious, athletic walker you will want to lace up those shoes and get moving – a lot! As well, Urban Pole Walking can be enjoyed by everyone and is most popular amongst 55 to 75 year olds (with a large amount of happy, healthy 75 to 98 olds as well). The reason for this is that most people in this age category already love to walk. They walk socially, for fun or for exercise, so adding Poles simply makes sense. Pole Walking makes walking more beneficial (increasing cardio and calorie burn) and it actually takes less effort to do and is easier on the body; lessening the impact when hitting the ground – on your back, hip, knee, ankle and/or feet.

Join Delmanor’s residents, families and team members on Saturday May 30th as we participate in the WALK OF LIFE to raise funds and to enjoy a fun filled active day.

You can donate by going to www.cardiachealth.ca and registering under the team name Delmanor.
