Wound Awareness Week returns from 28 September to 4 October 2026, and here are a few highlights you won't want to miss.

The popular Lunch Bytes webinar series returns: free online presentations from leading wound care experts daily during Wound Awareness Week. Designed for busy healthcare professionals, these bite-sized lunchtime sessions deliver practical, evidence-based learning. The full program will be announced soon.

Healthcare services, workplaces and community groups are also encouraged to get involved by hosting a Big Oozie Bake Off morning tea. This is a fun and simple way to encourage conversations about chronic wounds while supporting education in local communities.

Planning to host a morning tea? We'll be offering free host kits again when registrations open in August.

Whether you're looking to build your knowledge, raise awareness or support better wound care outcomes, there's something for everyone in Wound Awareness Week, bringing together clinicians, consumers and communities across Australia to raise awareness of chronic wounds and the importance of prevention, early intervention and best practice care.
