ROAR FOR WELLBEING
ROAR FOR WELLBEING IS BACK — OCTOBER 2026
Building on our incredible 2025 campaign, join Lions Clubs across Australia in making October 2026 a month of connection, compassion and community action.
After an extraordinary inaugural year, Roar for Wellbeing is back – bigger, bolder and more ambitious than ever.
In 2025, over 50 Lions Clubs across Australia came together to Roar for Wellbeing – hosting morning teas, community walks, health expos, memorial walks, school events and so much more. Social media reach grew by 129%, Facebook interactions jumped 287%, and 100% of surveyed clubs said they would recommend the campaign to others.
Read our 2025 wrap up here and watch our short video capturing just some of the photos.
2026 Roar for Wellbeing Challenge
Wellbeing touches all parts of our life, and it’s as important for communities, our Clubs and our members as individuals.
This year can your Club promote wellbeing across all 3 areas?
1. Community Wellbeing
An event or activity that raises awareness in your broader community
2. Club Wellbeing
Internal activities that boost the wellbeing of your Club culture
3. Club Member Wellbeing
Activities that improve the mental health and wellbeing of your Club members
