Step into winter with confidence! ❄️⛷️
Embrace the beauty of the season while staying safe on your walks. Think of each step as a dance with the icy ground—balance, awareness, and a little extra care, can keep you twirling gracefully instead of slipping unexpectedly. Let's make this winter a season of joy, not falls! ✨
Here are a few winter safety tips:
❄️walk like a penguin! Point your feet out, relax your knees and hold your arms away from your body. Also, walk flat footed with small, short steps
❄️invest in a good pair of winter boots - warm, waterproof and with a non-slip sole.
You can also add ice grippers to your shoes but be careful ⚠️- these can be extra slippery on smooth surfaces such as stone and tile!
❄️use a walking aid, such as a cane, walker or walking poles. Ensure these are set up to your appropriate height.
