Live Share Care walk in support of Pack2Treat with Adventures Unlimited
🌿 Adventure Unlimited Live Share Care Walk – Pack2Treat Support Event 🌿
Join us for a meaningful morning of connection, care, and gentle movement in support of Pack2Treat.
We begin our Live Share Care Walk from **Katong Park MRT (Exit 1)**, stepping out into the soft coastal air where the east coast breeze meets early morning light. The route carries us through a refreshing blend of sea-side calm, park connectors, and river-side paths, where city noise slowly fades into rustling trees, open skies, and the rhythm of shared footsteps.
[Pls note TEL late opening at 8.30am.]
This is not just a walk — it is a journey through Singapore’s everyday beauty, from coastal neighbourhoods into the heart of our river corridors, ending at Geylang Bahru Market.
At Geylang Bahru, we come together for a lunch distribution for elderly residents, especially seniors living alone. This is the heart of our purpose — to share warmth, dignity, and care through food and presence.
After the walk, all participants are warmly invited to:
\*Grab a simple brunch before
spend time supporting older hawkers, provision shops, and mom-and-pop stores in the market
These small businesses and elderly vendors are part of the same living fabric we are walking for — let’s continue that care with our choices and support.
🕛 Important reminder: Lunch for the elderly will be served by 12 noon sharp, so please enjoy a light brunch beforehand and return with energy and heart for the service.
Let’s walk not just for health, but for community.
For our seniors. For our hawkers. For each other. 🌱
Walk Distance : 9km - 2 hrs easy
Brunch and Food marketing : 1.5 hr
Food distribution : 1 hr
**As of May all pack2treat schedule will be change so that participants can join us to shop and distribute food .
