Hands Across Canberra in partnership with Stromlo Running Festival are hosting a rewarding experience on Canberra Day, lacing up their running shoes and embarking on a run/walk around the picturesque Lake Burley Griffin.

This run isn’t just about breaking a sweat; it’s about making a difference in our local community. Revenue from this event will be donated to Hands Across Canberra which raises much needed funds for our local charities and organisations.

As you pound the pavement, each step brings Hands Across Canberra closer to their fundraising goal.

With every stride, you’re not just covering distance, but also reaching out to support those in need. Whether it’s funding for essential services, aiding local charities, or empowering community projects, our collective effort makes a tangible impact where it matters most.

So, gather your friends, family, and fellow runners, and join Hands Across Canberra and Stromlo Running Festival in combining fitness and putting the fun in fundraising.

Everyone is welcome to this event. If you have any accessibility or inclusion requirements to fully participate, please let event organisers know before attending the event by contacting ash@damselandsprout.com.au or 0415 425 389.

After you finish your run, join the festivities happening throughout the morning at Commonwealth Park with food, Little Burley Markets and entertainment.
