Additionally, we provide comprehensive direction through all of our programs which include descriptive, customised instructions and clear images displayed as line drawings, colour illustrations, even photographs and videos.

RUBIX HEALTH are looking for expressions of interest from men who might wish to be involved in getting a "Man Walk" off the ground in Busselton. This initiative has been extremely successful in supporting men to walk, talk and support one another in many locations in the eastern seaboard.
The man walk has the potential to help motivate and connect men in our community whilst they develop new positive activity habits.
The concept of having such an initiative in Busselton aligns with RUBIX HEALTH's commitment to improve the wider physical and mental wellbeing of the community in which we operate.
We are seeking a small group of guys who are prepared to commit to participating and being the lead for the walk one morning per month over a 6 month trial.
The group would be an informal community activity with no fees involved.
The walks are proposed to leave from the Busselton CBD foreshore and cater for all paces of walkers in a return to start point format. If the participants desired, there could be the opportunity for those that wish to hang around after the walk to catch up over a cuppa.
Please contact David Barton at RUBIX HEALTH at admin@rubixhealth.com.au or call 97524174 if you are interested in assisting us to get the man walk off the ground in Busselton. If you don't feel able to commit to being part of the leadership of this group, but want to be notified about developments and dates / times for the walk, please also send us your contact email.
If you know of others who might want to participate or help with the groups leadership, please share this post to them and your wider network.
