Now in its 26th year, Walk to Work Day is being held on Friday 6 September 2024. The annual event encourages employees and employers to build regular walking into their daily routines.

Walk to Work Day promotes regular walking as a healthy activity. With millions of Australians living with all types of diabetes or at risk of type 2 diabetes there has never been a better time to get walking and start on the path to a healthier workplace and a healthier you.

It's easy to get involved!

Just follow these 2 simple steps to support the campaign:

Get walking! Walk as much as you can on Walk to Work Day – Friday 6 September 2024.
If you can't walk all the way, use public transport and get off the bus, train, tram or ferry a few stops earlier and walk the rest of the way to work or take a half-hour walk at lunchtime.
Walk in a group or individually – all walking helps support this important message.
Spread the word! Ask your family, friends and work colleagues to do the same.

Join us in Adelaide Botanic Gardens for a free picnic lunch to commemorate World AIDS Day. 

Observed every year on December 1st, World AIDS Day is our biggest opportunity to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS. Together, we'll discuss the latest advancements in treatment, reduce stigma that still exists for people living with HIV and remember those who have died from AIDS related illnesses. 

This special event is a collaboration between Positive Life SA, SAMESH and Thorne Harbour Health. 

All people living with HIV and their community and allies are invited to mark the occasion with us. This event is free, register to let us know you're coming.
