Starting out with Facebook
Once you have joined the Active Women over 50 Online Facebook group page, you are a group “member”.
When you open the group or click on the group, the first thing you will be able to see is the group “wall”. This is the space on a Facebook user's profile where other users can write something or ‘post’ a message, picture, video and other digital content for others to see. The appearance of the group wall changes as other members post messages and content. If you go back in at a later stage, you may see a different ‘wall’ of new posts from other members.
After a post has been made, people may respond to it by writing or making a comment or by adding an image or video. This can be done by clicking on either the “Comment” icon or the camera icon.

You will be able to share your physical activity journey with others by making a post to the group wall and responding to other people’s posts.
It is totally up to you to choose how you interact and how often you’d like to post on the Facebook group.
