Join the 2023 Be Wise Walk and Support the Pat Cronin Foundation

Walk on November 19!


The Pat Cronin Foundation are excited to be able to come together as a community again in 2023 for the 'Be Wise Walk' as they walk to remember Pat and to End the Coward Punch.

The EDFL is a proud supporter of the Pat Cronin Foundation as they continue to create awareness, educate and complete research to assist in eliminating senseless violence in our community.

The Be Wise Walk starts this year at the Beverley Road Oval (Banyule Cricket Club - 50 Beverley Road Heidelberg) at 10:00am on Sunday the 19th of November.

The walk then courses for 8.4km along the Plenty and Yarra River trails. There will be first aid and refreshments along the trail.

At the end of the Walk at Lower Plenty Football Ground (80 Park Lane Montmorency) there will be food, drinks, music and kids entertainment.

You can register yourself or a team to join the walk here.

Registration includes an event t-shirt which will be available to be collected on the morning of the Be Wise Walk at Heidelberg Cricket Club. You can pay for postage for your t-shirt during the registration process if required.

If you cannot join the foundation on the day for the Be Wise Walk, the Walk to Anywhere Week option allows you to walk anywhere, any distance on any day/s of the week from the 13th-19th of November.

You can find more information at the Be Wise Walk website here or promote your walk with some of the provided material here.
