Join Us for the Halifax Defeat Depression Walk!

Event Schedule

• 9:30 AM: Registration Opens
• 10:00 AM: Walk Begins

On Saturday, May 30, Halifax comes together to raise awareness, build hope, and support the national Defeat Depression Campaign. This is more than an event—it’s a movement to show that mental health matters, and together, we can make a difference.

Fun for All Ages!

• Kids' Zone: Bouncy castle, games, and activities designed to keep little ones (and big ones) smiling.
• Special Guests: Meet Jewelz the horse and connect with the Halifax Regional Police.
• Community Auction (happening in March 2026): Bid online for exciting items and experiences — 100 % all proceeds support mental health initiatives right here in our community!
• Inspiration & Connection: Learn more about mood disorders, hear stories of resilience, and discover how you can help.
• Walk, Run or Roll: Physical activity and connection boost moods and supports our mental health.  Let's move together for mental health. This is an easy walk - twice around the park (1.5 km).

Why Participate?

Every registration, donation, and share helps fund programs that support individuals and families living with depression and other mood disorders. By joining, you’re not just attending—you’re standing up for mental health in Nova Scotia and across Canada.
