Walk To Cure Diabetes

Walk to Cure Diabetes is JDRF’s biggest fundraising event, making it crucial for supporting the most promising Australian research to find a cure for T1D and its complications.

There are two Walk routes to choose from, 2km or 4km. Both Walks will start behind the primary school in Montagu Bay Reserve, a picturesque location with a child friendly park and spectacular views of Mount Wellington and the Tasman Bridge. The 4km Walk will go over the amazing Tasman bridge returning to the Walk Village along the same path. For those not so keen or unable, the 2km Walk is shorter and flatter following paths along the magical waterfront. The 2km Walk is pram and wheelchair friendly, however dogs are not permitted on either of the walks.

Join us before the Walk for breakfast with bacon and eggs rolls from 10.30am. After the Walk there will be a BBQ, face painting, Super Heroes, photo booth and loads of fun for the family.

There will be some food options available on the day however we do encourage you to bring a healthy diabetes-friendly lunch with you along with chairs and picnic rugs to enjoy a day out with fellow Type 1 families and their friends.
