Bleeding Disorders Awareness Week and Red Cake Day was held this year from 8-14 October 2017. Haemophilia Foundation Australia and Haemophilia Foundations around the country worked together to raise awareness about bleeding disorders.
There was great interest in the week and we had many supporters to help us fundraise and raise awareness over the week. Bendigo Bank branches across Australia joined in partnership once again to raise awareness and funds; and schools, hospitals, libraries, families and local communities around the country received promotional materials to help them run their own activities.
A newsletter highlighting all the events held during the week will be distributed to participants soon and will be available on the HFA web site. If you wish to receive a copy please email Natashia at ncoco@haemophilia.org.au
Thank you to everyone who participated in Bleeding Disorders Awareness Week and Red Cake Day activities!
Congratulations to the winners!
