This Sunday’s Ballarat Memory Walk & Jog postponed

Dementia Australia

In the interests of public safety, Dementia Australia has taken the decision to postpone this Sunday’s Memory Walk & Jog event in Ballarat.

The wellbeing of our clients, supporters and staff is our number one priority.

In light of the evolving situation surrounding the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak around the world and here in Australia, we believe it to be the most responsible approach in this situation.

We are in the process of notifying everybody who has already registered for Ballarat Memory Walk & Jog, and thank everyone who has supported this event. We know how passionate the people of Ballarat are as a community and thank them for their ongoing support.

We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and we will keep you updated regarding a new date for this event.
