Big Walk 2026

In August this year, Royce Simmons embarked on the Big Walk 2026 to help raise money in hope of finding a cure for dementia through medical research.

About

After the huge success of the Big Walk 2025, we are excited for Royce’s Big Walk in August 2026. So, among other fund-raising initiatives for Royce’s designated not-for-profit support organisation, Dementia Australia, Royce has walked again in 2026 along the way there were several sportsman’s dinners or lunches, and a coaching clinic, to help raise funds for local rugby league on the route.

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