We invite you to take steps to beat melanoma by joining our Melanoma March event in Adelaide on Sunday 26 March 2023.
Melanoma March is a family-friendly 4km walk and it’s about taking steps together to honour those we’ve lost, support those impacted by melanoma, and raise awareness and funds so we are one step closer to reaching the goal of zero deaths from melanoma.
Our event is dog friendly so your furry friends are welcome to join us, provided they are on a lead.
Australia has the highest melanoma rates in the world, with one person diagnosed every 30 minutes and one person dying from the disease every 6 hours. It is also the most common cancer affecting 20-39 year old Australians. Currently, 50% of advanced melanoma patients don’t respond or become resistant to new immunotherapy treatments.
Cost to attend are Adults (over 18 years) $40, Child (5-17 years) $20, Child (under 5) Free, plus we have a Family deal (2 x Adults and up to 5 Children 5-17 yrs) $100.
Melanoma March is an initiative of Melanoma Institute Australia, proudly supported by Australian Melanoma Research Foundation, Melanoma Patients Australia and other melanoma research organisations across Australia.
