The Grand Stroll 2026 | Wednesday 14 October

Sonia Lim 10 Sep 2026

Dress Your Best, Match Our Steps & Join the Royal Brunch After

On Wednesday 14 October 2026, we’ll be walking side by side to raise funds for the RFBI Benevolence Program, helping support people and communities in need. Whether you’re walking, cheering from the sidelines or joining us for the celebrations afterwards, we’d love to have you involved.

The Grand Stroll will bring together residents, families, staff, volunteers and community members across RFBI communities in Armidale, Bellingen, Coffs Harbour, Glen Innes, Moonbi, Raleigh Urunga and Tamworth as we take steps towards making a meaningful difference.

Bring your royal spirit or superhero flair to the day. Wear a crown, cape or themed outfit and join fellow participants as we walk together in support of a great cause. Each participating RFBI location will recognise a standout participant who best embraces the theme, so we encourage everyone to get involved and showcase their creativity.

Following the stroll, enjoy a Royal Brunch with residents, families, staff, volunteers and community members as we celebrate our collective effort, community spirit and commitment to making a meaningful difference.
