About the race
Adelaide Dementia Australia’s Memory Walk & Jog at Wigley Reserve is a community fundraising event supporting people living with dementia and their carers. The event raises funds for Dementia Australia’s information, advice, support services, and research into dementia prevention and treatment.
Participants can choose from multiple course options:
- 10 km Elite course
- 10 km Long course
- 6.5 km Middle course
- 3 km Short course
The site is designed for accessibility: the course is flat and wide with a paved walking path along the entire route, and accessible toilets are available on site. Organisers note a section where the course narrows near the weir, a grassy area before the start archway, and limited accessible parking bays with one located further from the start line. The event encourages walking, jogging, running or wheeling as ways people may participate and honour those affected by dementia.
The page also states recent local figures for South Australia and explains that physical activity and funded research are part of the event’s focus on reducing dementia risk and improving care. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
