November is global prematurity awareness month & Lifes Little Treasures Foundation’s “Walk for Prems” will be the opening event for the Australian observance of global prematurity awareness month which culminates for National Premmie Day on the 17th November 2011.
All locations have been choosen as they have pram friendly tracks. In Melbourne, once you cross the finish line, pull out the picnic rug, recover with a tasty sausage and let the kids enjoy great entertainment and music. There will be market stalls to explore, cool down massages and a raffle with great prizes.
In Sydney, Adelaide, Hobart and Perth come and meet other families of premature/sick babies, enjoy going for a social walk and then enjoy a BYO picnic.
The Life’s Little Treasures Foundation provides information and support to families of children born premature or sick. Their services can be found throughout hospitals in Australia as well as supporting families within the community once they come home.
Registrations are now open.
You must enter by Thursday 13th October to guarantee a t-shirt/bandana.
The major walk/fun run will be held at Albert Park Lake in Melbourne where participants can take part in a timed 10km run, 5km run or 5km walk. This will be followed by a wide range of entertainment including music, jumping castle, face-painting and much more.
