WALK 2015 - #WalkWithMeUAE
Imperial College London Diabetes Centre (ICLDC), with the support of Health Authority Abu Dhabi and Mubadala’s network of world class healthcare facilities, Healthpoint and Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, invited the UAE to walk together for the nation’s leading annual walkathon, WALK 2015.
Held under the royal patronage of Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, under ICLDC’s Diabetes.Knowledge.Action campaign which is now in its ninth year, WALK 2015 took place at Yas Marina Circuit on 13 November, with more than 21,000 people walking in support of embracing healthier lifestyles around the Formula 1® Grand Prix track.
Following the success of last year’s comprehensive activity audit, WALK 2015 continued with the community activity check. Upon registration walkers were asked for their height, weight and activity levels to determine Body Mass Index (BMI). To find out what BMI means please visit Health Authority Abu Dhabi¹s (HAAD).
