Australians are being encouraged to prioritise their mental health when Walk to Work Day returns on Friday 27 March 2026, with a refreshed national focus on wellbeing and workplace fundraising.
Now in its 27th year, the initiative, championed by the Pedestrian Council of Australia, is supporting Black Dog Institute in 2026, shining a spotlight on the powerful mental health benefits of regular walking. The updated campaign reinforces that simple, everyday actions — like walking — can play a meaningful role in reducing stress, lifting mood and improving focus and connection at work.
As part of the refreshed campaign, individuals, teams and organisations are encouraged to register and fundraise in support of Black Dog Institute. Funds raised will help translate research into real-world clinical care, deliver evidence-based education programs and expand digital tools that support mental health nationwide.
