Gather your crew during breast cancer awareness month and pink up for our first SWIISH WALK4BCNA proudly supporting Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA).
Join us at the SWIISH WALK4BCNA on Sunday 15 October at Metcalfe Park, Sydney.
We invite you to this inaugural event proudly supporting Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA). The SWIISH WALK4BCNA will see registrants participate in a 4km walk around Metcalfe Park, Sydney followed by a family friendly festival.
The festival will include food vendors, health and fitness retailers, SWIISH and BCNA merchandise, children’s activities, yoga, massage and other wellness activations including a chill out zone. BCNA’s signature Mini-Field of Women area will be a space where participants can pay tribute to those affected by breast cancer. For those of you unable to make it to Sydney you can join the virtual walk in your local community.
