Memory Walk for Alzheimer's Australia WA

Lynn, who is WA Greens spokesperson for Seniors, is pictured here placing her flags the Alzheimer's Australia WA Memory Walk at Curtin University.

The walk was organised to honour the 23,000 people in WA who have Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, or in memory of a loved one. The aim of the day was to walk, jog or run as many times as possible around the oval any time during the day from 9.30am until 4pm.

Each time you crossed the finish line you were handed a 'flag' to place in the centre of the oval at the end of your laps of honour. 

Lynn earned an impressive 4 flags.
