In this note we characterize a weak Orlicz-Poincaré inequality through the Hölder conti-nuity of locally integrable functions possessing upper gradients in the corresponding Or-licz space, under some growth assumptions on the Young function. Our results are proved in the setting of doubling metric measure spaces.
