Walk to Remember 2025

Red Nose is pleased to be hosting this year’s special Walk to Remember events in various locations across Australia during October.

When
1–29 October 2025

All bereaved families in our community are invited to participate in this year’s walks to remember and honour their precious babies and children.

Each Walk to Remember gives bereaved families a space to come together to remember their babies and find connection with other bereaved parents, families and friends.

The majority of our Walks to Remember are volunteer led and rely on members of the community to plan and host the activities, with support from our Community Engagement team. If you are interested in coordinating a Walk to Remember in a new location in 2026, we’d be very happy to hear from you at community@rednose.org.au.

As a volunteer in this impactful role, you’ll create a meaningful event for families who have experienced the loss of a baby or child. Your responsibilities include planning and organising the annual Walk to Remember, building local support, promoting the event, and fostering a compassionate environment for bereaved families.

If you possess strong organisation, communication, and empathy skills, we want to hear from you. Event planning or community engagement experience is highly regarded. As a volunteer, you’ll gain personal fulfillment and contribute to a vital cause.
