About Talk N Walk

The Talk N Walk app has been co-designed - from the initial idea through to how it looks and functions – with a project team of more than sixty 11–14-year-old girls from different cultural, linguistic, socioeconomic, and geographical backgrounds. The result is a physical activity and mental health option that focuses on friendships, family and feeling good, not on competing, counting steps or calories.

The Talk N Walk app encourages and supports 11–14-year-old girls to swap catch ups on the couch with active ‘Talk N Walks’ in the park, on the way to school, around their neighbourhoods, or even at the shopping centre. Key features include: setting your own goals and notification reminders; honing in on your mood before and after a Talk N Walk; conversation starters and challenges to complete while walking; and, digital achievement stickers.

By being active together, with the support of their friends and family, girls’ wellbeing, and sense of belonging and community can be supported as they build a foundation for healthy lifestyles.

This app is brought to you by Nature Play WA with funding from Healthway and Telethon. Nature Play WA is a not-for-profit organisation proudly supported by the Department of Local Government Sport and Cultural Industries.
