Step Out for Parkinson’s®: A Movement for Parkinson’s

Why We Walk

Step Out for Parkinson’s® is more than a fundraiser — it’s a movement of hope and solidarity. In 2025, we walk for the Parkinson’s Support Fund™, Sunshine Coast — a local initiative providing direct support to people living with Parkinson’s and their carers. Together, we:

  • Raise awareness and reduce stigma
  • Fund access to therapy, respite, and equipment
  • Celebrate the strength of those living with Parkinson’s and the partners who care for them every day

What to Expect in 2025

  • Live music and entertainment
  • Activities for all ages, prizes & raffles
  • Local partners and sponsors
  • A fun, inclusive community atmosphere
