Andrew Walker 

Board Vice President, Chair of Parks Committee

Prior Board Chair 2019-2022

I have a diverse background in the field of health and wellness. My primary job is working as a Registered Massage Therapist where I specialize in sports and therapeutic treatments. My main goal from massage is making sure people can live active healthy lives. To complement this, I also have a Bachelor of Health and Physical Education degree with a major in Physical Literacy from Mount Royal University. I am also the clinic manager of Target Health and oversee the daily operations of the clinic on top of treating my own clients.

Outside of massage I have also done research work with both Vivo for Healthier Generations and Mount Royal University. The research was focused on children’s play and physical activity, inclusive design, and adaptive sports.  It was this interest that originally led me to get involved with Variety on the parks committee which I have chaired since the beginning of 2018. I have also served as the board chair from 2019 to 2022. Since that time, I have seen the impact Variety has had on the impact of both children living with disabilities and their families.

For me, inclusion means removing the barriers both physically and socially that limit children’s play. This includes building places for children with physical, sensory or hidden disabilities to play and be active, as well as educating the general population on the benefits of building an inclusive society for all.
