Get your sneakers ready, Adelaide!
SAHMRI’s BRIGHT Walk is back, lighting up the city with a heartwarming glow on July 6th to support a cause that touches us all: raising funds for medical research at the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI).
This year’s event promises to be more accessible and family-friendly than ever, with an earlier start time and a shorter, 11-kilometre route that’s perfect for all ages.
Kicking off at 4pm on the picturesque Torrens Riverbank, participants will traverse through Adelaide’s scenic parklands and vibrant streets, ending at the iconic SAHMRI Cheesegrater building.
Along the way, walkers will be treated to a variety of recharge stations, including a stop at the National Wine Centre, where they can refuel and soak in the atmosphere.
BRIGHT Walk isn’t just about getting active—it’s a vital community effort to fund life-saving medical research at SAHMRI, South Australia’s flagship not-for-profit health and medical research institute.
Each step taken on the walk contributes towards groundbreaking research into major health challenges like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes.
The journey ends under the stars at SAHMRI’s lit-up Cheesegrater, where food, drinks, and live music will celebrate the collective achievement. It’s a powerful way to stand in solidarity with those battling serious diseases and to push forward the quest for cures and improved treatments.
