From 7:30 am, locals will walk, jog, or run along the beautiful Redcliffe foreshore to raise funds and awareness for Dementia Australia.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best, donning a fancy dress costume, or just out for a stroll with friends and family—including the dog!—there’s something for everyone. With multiple distances to choose from and a dog-friendly course (just don’t forget to register your pooch!), the event promises a vibrant, community-driven atmosphere that supports a vital cause.
Why it matters
More than just a fun run, the Redcliffe Memory Walk & Jog is part of a national movement helping to beat dementia. In Queensland alone, nearly 82,270 people are currently living with dementia. Across Australia, that number is estimated at 433,300—and growing.
Funds raised at the event support Dementia Australia’s essential work, including support services for individuals and families, education programs, and world-leading research into treatment and prevention.
Dementia Australia is the national peak body for people impacted by dementia, including those living with the condition, their families, and carers. The organisation provides support services across the country, delivers education and information to the aged care sector, and advocates for improved outcomes through evidence-based policy. Dementia Australia also partners with leading researchers to drive innovation in care, treatment, and the search for a cure.
