Olivia's Walk for Wellness

  • Family and kids
  • Fitness

Olivia's Walk for Wellness is a community event that brings people together to walk in support of those living with cancer – honouring loved ones and celebrating connection, hope and wellbeing.

Inspired by Olivia Newton-John's hit Let's Get Physical, dress up in your best 1980s gear: headbands, legwarmers and all.

The new 2km walk makes the event even more inclusive and accessible, allowing more people to be part of the day in a way that feels comfortable and enjoyable.

All funds raised support Austin Health’s dedicated cancer centre, the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre (ONJ Centre), where patients receive whole-person cancer care through traditional medical treatment, research and evidence-based wellness therapies.
