Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month October 2026 Teamwork stronger together

WHAT’S ON FOR THE MONTH

Throughout the month, you can participate in various community events and activities. We also provide resources to help you plan and host your own. Online, we share information about bleeding disorders, stories from the community, bust myths and more.

The last week of October is Red Week. During the week, organise an activity with your family or friends around something red – wear red to school, bake red cupcakes, red hair day – the ideas are endless!!

You can order free promotional items to support your event. Online orders are now open.
