🔴 Walking Together to End Polio 🔴

On 18 October, the Rotary Clubs of Camberwell, Hawthorn and Glenferrie joined forces for a community walk from Fritsch Holzer Park to Auburn Hotel in support of End Polio Now.

Despite the warm 26°C weather, more than 30 enthusiastic participants turned out to raise awareness of polio eradication. Even members who had recently undergone surgery joined in, a wonderful show of commitment to this important cause!

Dressed in our red End Polio T-shirts, we created a vibrant sea of red as we made our way through the park. Along the way, members handed out flyers to passers-by, sharing the message about why eradicating polio still matters.

The walk wrapped up at Auburn Hotel, where everyone enjoyed a well-earned drink and great fellowship. It was a fantastic afternoon of community, friendship, and shared purpose.

A big thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the day a success. Together, we’re not only walking for fellowship, but we’re taking another step towards a polio-free world!
