Fundraise for people living with dementia

COVID-19 has brought a unique set of challenges and changes to our community and lives and now more than ever people living with dementia need our support. Your fundraising provides vital support services to the estimated 153,000 people with dementia in NSW. Your fundraising also drives our non-stop research partnerships, where talented scientists, can work towards a possible future without dementia.

A community together, against dementia.

Your health and safety is our top priority and we are committed to holding safe events. We are working with local council and state governments to comply with all current regulations, restrictions and health advice.

Timings*

In light of the recent circumstances in Wollongong we have made the responsible decision to slightly alter the format of the event.

We are now conducting a staggered start which means you will be allocated a 10min time slot to start your walk or jog.
