Head to the Hill 2026
Head to the Hill is BTAA’s annual national advocacy and awareness event at Parliament House, Canberra.
Each year, patients, carers and supporters meet with Members and Senators to put brain cancer firmly on the national agenda.
At the heart of the event is a powerful shoe installation — thousands of pairs representing the lives, stories and families impacted by brain tumours. Every pair symbolises a person, making the human cost visible in a way statistics alone cannot.
You can take part each year by attending in person, sending a pair of shoes and a story to be included in the installation, writing to your Federal MP or Senator, or sharing our advocacy messages across your networks.
After registering you will be redirected to a Shoe Collection Form with more information and details.
