What is
Memory Walk & Jog
Communities across Australia coming together to get fit and beat dementia.
Everyone can take part!
We want to see the whole community join us. That means from the very oldest to the very youngest.
Memory Walk & Jog is determined to beat dementia to the finish line by empowering you to raise funds for people impacted by dementia.
Our events are designed with the whole community in mind. Whether you're super-fit or a Sunday-stroller, you can walk, jog, or run the course.
With multiple distances there is something for everyone; guaranteeing you will have fun, raise funds, and help us create a dementia friendly world. Walk courses are dog-friendly too' but pooch passes are limited so be sure to register them for the event.
So tie up your laces and join us. While exercise is great for our bodies, we now know that brain health also improves with regular physical activity. The old saying ‘a healthy mind in a healthy body’ is true, so everyone can benefit from getting a little active.
Raise funds for
Dementia Australia
We’ve made it super quick and easy for you to support the work of Dementia Australia through Memory Walk & Jog.
When you register for your event you’ll receive an email with a link to your very own fundraising page. This is the page you share with your friends and family to support you.
We’ve also created a Fundraising Toolkit to help make turning kilometres into dollars an absolute walk in the park.
Help raise funds for the 433,300 Australians living with dementia and 1.7 million people involved in their care.

Getting active to beat dementia
Make a difference with Memory Walk & Jog
From the moment you register you’re already making an impact.
When you choose to fundraise for your event, your impact grows. Stepping up for the estimated 433,300 people living in Australia with dementia is a great way to show them that they’re not alone.
When you tell everyone why you’re taking part, you’re also helping to raise awareness of dementia and how devastating it can be.
But there is also a practical side to your support. The money you raise helps to grow Dementia Australia’s services, as more and more people in the community need our help.
We’ve got our eyes on the prize too. Making a better today for people living with dementia is vital, but tomorrow also matters. That’s why your support drives our non-stop research partnerships. Thanks to these seriously talented scientists, we can give family and friends hope that a future without dementia is possible.
