Let’s take steps to raise awareness about sexual violence and show our support for survivors. Run or walk 5km with AWARE’s Sexual Assault Care Centre as part of the global movement, Footsteps To Inspire.

This year marks the first global Footsteps to Inspire where people from all around the world will walk or run any distance between 5-16km in support of survivors of sexual violence. The project was started by Claire McFarlane, a rape survivor who dreams to inspire people everywhere to come together to create a safer world.

‘Through Footsteps To Inspire, I want to leave more than physical footprints on the beaches I run on. I want to promote peace and end sexual violence. I want to inspire change and show the world that it is possible to survive and thrive after a life trauma.’ ~ Claire McFarlane

When: Sunday, 22nd July, 2018, 5.30pm

Where: East Coast Park Carpark B1 Parkrun

Note: Please bring a water-bottle and wear comfortable shoes. The walk/run will be ending at a food court so bring some cash if you would like to join us for dinner afterwards!
