Let's Get Sophisticated... QR Codes


Do you know what this is? If you don't, fear not! This is a QR Code, put simply it is unique bar code that lets you instantly learn more about a business, their website, promotions, information and details.

How does it work?
  1. Make sure your phone can scan a QR code with its camera, either with an application that you download or via software that's already installed on your phone. We recommend MS Tag App.
  2. When you see a QR code, use your phone's application to scan it. This in turn will direct you to more information about what you have scanned, play a video, dial a number or take you to a website.
To be able to offer our Members more advanced communication through QR Codes, DHP is utilising this amazing technology. Over the coming months you will notice a lot of our marketing material uses QR Codes so that you can get all the information you need by simply scanning the code.

Be Quick! Be A Part of the DHP Jetty2Jetty Team


ONCE again Dolphins Health Precinct will focus on the Jetty 2 Jetty fun run/walk in July. Held on Sunday, July 15, the scenic course over either the 3km, 5km, 10km or 21km events follows the picturesque Redcliffe waterfront, starting and finishing in front of the Belvedere Hotel next to the Woody Point jetty.

The event attracts more than 4000 people to Woody Point and for the third year running Dolphins Health Precinct will be represented with a mix of enthusiastic members and staff across all races. Last year the Dolphins had about 100 participants and hope to exceed that number in 2012. The fun run/walk is a great family and community day and everyone can be involved, walkers and runners alike. The Dolphins Health Precinct competitors complete the event with a barbecue and drinks to round off a great active day of fun. Anyone wanting to join the DHP team needs to complete a registration form at reception and pay the entry cost and $20 for a DHP Special Memorabilia Jetty2Jetty shirt. Early Bird savings are in place until May 13 so get in quickly.

DHP is also offering a fantastic training opportunity for those who want to get ready for the big race.

For 10 weeks leading up to the race, every Saturday at 7am there will be a training run developed and co-ordinated by one of our highly experienced personal trainers. This gives people the opportunity to work on running style, race preparation, race nutrition, setting and meeting race goals and increasing general fitness. DHP is offering an incredible package that includes a 10-week run training program, race entry (any distance) and a DHP shirt – all for $99. This is a great opportunity to get fit, get some expert advice and feel ready to take on the big event.
