Walk to Defeat MND is coming to Townsville!
Rally your family, friends, colleagues—and even your dog—and join us for a scenic 1.5km or 3km walk or roll along the beautiful Strand! Walk to Defeat MND is an inclusive, fun-filled event that raises essential funds for those living with Motor Neurone Disease (MND), while fostering a sense of community for everyone affected.
This year, we're excited to bring the event to Townsville for the first time, following more than ten years of success across southeast Queensland.
Why are we fundraising?
MND Queensland provides life-changing equipment, care, and services for those living with MND—many of whom are not eligible for NDIS support. Donations from events like this are crucial to ensuring these vital services continue.
How does it work?
Registering for Walk to Defeat MND is easy. Simply sign up online, create your personalised fundraising page, and share the link with your friends, family, or workplace. Donations go directly through your page—no need to handle cash!
If you’re fundraising with others, sign up as a team to reach a bigger goal together. Whether as an individual or a team, there are awesome prizes up for grabs, plus tons of resources and support to help you succeed.
Event Highlights:
- Every registered attendee receives a free T-shirt—don’t forget to wear it with pride and show your MND Queensland blue!
- Dogs are welcome (on a leash), with a Top Dog Award for the best-dressed pup!
- Enjoy drinks, snacks, raffles, prizes, merchandise, face painting, and more!
