SSRP are delighted to announce the return of the Activator Poles programme to Sligo Town. The Activator Poles Programme is a fun outdoor activity suitable for adults who are looking to improve their fitness and health in a social and supportive environment. The aim of the programme is to increase opportunities for adults to be more physically active, to participate in strength and aerobic based exercise and specifically to encourage them to exercise outdoors in the beautiful landscape at their doorstep. Sligo has some of the most fantastic park facilities that offer beautiful views of the surrounding area. Weekly walk locations will rotate each week, giving individuals the opportunity to see all the beauty Sligo has to offer.

Participants will learn how to use the poles to improve mobility, strength, balance, and aerobic fitness through gentle walking techniques and strengthening exercises. All sessions will be led by a qualified SSRP coach. The Activator Poles programme is suited for all levels of fitness and abilities.
