Join us for the Family Memory Walk 2025, a meaningful community event to raise awareness for Dementia while honouring memories and celebrating connection across generations.

Held in the beautiful SSR Botanical Gardens, Pamplemousses on Saturday 20 September 2025, the walk is open to all ages and abilities. Whether you’re walking in memory of a loved one, supporting someone living with dementia, or simply showing up for your community, every step counts.

 

The morning includes a gentle 3.5 km walk, (shorter option available) — all in support of a more dementia-aware and inclusive Mauritius.
