About

‍

The 2022, 2023 & 2024 walks were a huge success so we’re back up and running again for Royce’s Big Walk for 2025. So, among other fund-raising initiatives for Royce’s designated not-for-profit support organisation, Dementia Australia, Royce will walk again in 2025 along the way there will be several sportsman’s dinners or lunches, and a coaching clinic, to help raise funds for local rugby league on the route.

You can support Royce’s mission, Dementia Australia, junior rugby league and, in particular, the families who have or will go through what Royce himself is confronting, by donating or attending some of the functions.

The tough-as-nails former Panthers skipper is tackling his Alzheimer’s diagnosis just as he would any other opponent on the footy field – head on and with the benefit of his ‘team’ and their supporters as his major priority.
