24-Hour Treadmill Challenge – 2027

28.05.202709:00am 29.05.202709:00am

Very Special Kids, 321 Glenferrie Road, Malvern

Help keep the treadmills moving for 24 hours to enable us to provide 24-hour care.

About the event

 

The 24-Hour Treadmill Challenge is a one-of-a-kind event that is not to be missed.

 

You can help keep the treadmills moving for 24 hours to enable us to provide 24-hour care for children with life-limiting conditions. By jumping on a treadmill and raising funds, you can help provide specialist paediatric palliative care at Very Special Kids House, Victoria’s only children’s hospice.

 

When the treadmills start whirring and the music starts pumping, it’s time to run, jog or walk for at least 30 minutes, helping to raise $900,000 for the children, young people and families in our care. The funds you raise can help ensure that every child or young person with life-limiting conditions and their families are supported every step of their journey, through life, death and bereavement.

 

Every minute on the treadmill and every dollar you raise makes a real difference. Register as an individual or join a team and get ready to raise more than a sweat!
