The 2025 Canberra Memory Walk & Jog is nearly here with the event set to take place on Sunday 23 February at Barrine Drive, Lake Burley Griffin.
Dementia Australia’s largest annual fundraising event returns to Canberra in the hopes of attracting its biggest crowd yet, with participants helping to raise funds in support of people living with dementia, their families and carers.
More than 5,800 people live with dementia in the Australian Capital Territory. Dementia is the second leading cause of death of Australians and the leading cause of death of Australian women.
“As the number of Australians impacted by dementia continues to grow, it is more important than ever that we raise funds and encourage everyone to get active for their brain health,” Dementia Australia said in a statement.
