The Step into Life de Castella Run is proud to partner with MAPrc to help raise awareness and funds for mental health research.

 

Mental illness remains one of the most complex and challenging areas of health practice. It affects one in five Australians.

The Step into Life de Castella Run for Mental Health Research is a successful vehicle to generate increased awareness and financial support for mental health research. In 2010 and 2011 the event partnered with “Everyday Hero” and over $60,000 was raised for mental health research at MAPrc.

Through this event’s partnership with MAPrc and by supporting this event, you are enabling more research investigating new treatment options for mental illnesses.

There are three event distances to choose from -

• 5km walk / run
• Runners World 10km
• Mizuno 15km

It is a unique course that follows the Yarra River through beautiful natural bushland, with magnificent views across inner-city Melbourne.  There is a festive atmosphere on the day with something for everyone - music, entertainment, product booths, food stalls, even a petting zoo for the kids! So bring the family down and have some fun while supporting a great cause!
