Registrations are open for Sydney’s steepest charity challenge – the Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn – returning on Sunday 25 May 2025 to Awaba Street, Mosman (Sydney).
Bringing together thousands of Australians to tackle Mosman’s infamous 420-metre incline, the Balmoral Burn is more than just a test of endurance. Every step helps the Humpty Dumpty Foundation provide essential – and often lifesaving – medical equipment and healthcare initiatives to more than 500 hospitals and health services across Australia.
With more than 20 different races on offer, there’s something for everyone – from families and first-timers to elite athletes and even four-legged friends.
Participants can run solo or alongside their school, sports group or workplace, making the Balmoral Burn a race where passion meets purpose.
Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn Race Highlights:
This year the babies are back bigger, bouncier and ready to take on Australia’s only inflatable baby suit race - Run Baby Run - which made its official race day debut last year.
Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn Race Highlights:
- 20+ Race Categories - for all ages and fitness levels from first-timers to fitness fanatics
- Celebration Run - Wear your whites and get ready for a blast of colour
- Pet & Owner (11:00am)- because furry friends love a challenge too
- King & Queen of the Hill - for the fastest of the fast
- Corporate Relays - where teamwork meets endurance
- Be In It To Win It - for schools to get involved

- Primary Schools – two timed pocket-rocket races for younger runners on the Hill
Humpty Dumpty Foundation supporter Tim Akers made history in 2023 as the first-ever participant in an inflatable baby suit to honour his son Archie, who was born three months early at just 900 grams and spent 12 weeks in a Neonatal Care Unit using Humpty Dumpty Foundation donated equipment.
Founded in 2001 by Wallabies great and Humpty Ambassador Phil Kearns AM, this milestone Sydney event has raised over $35 million, proving that when communities come together, big things happen for little lives. Funds raised from the Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn directly help sick children receive the best possible care, when and where they need it most.
Whether you’re taking on the famous steep climb up Awaba Street or cheering from the sidelines, there’s something for everyone. With kids’ entertainment, delicious food, and live activations, the entire Sydney community can enjoy a fantastic day out while helping to ensure every Australian child has access to quality healthcare no matter where they live.

About the Humpty Dumpty Foundation
For over 30 years, the Humpty Dumpty Foundation and its supporters have provided lifesaving medical equipment and healthcare initiatives to help sick babies and children in over 500 hospitals and health services across Australia.
To date, Humpty has raised over $100 million and annually, on average, provides 500 pieces of medical equipment to paediatric wards, neonatal units, and maternity and emergency departments across the country. The Foundation also supports a growing list of special projects and healthcare initiatives to improve health outcomes.
The Humpty Dumpty Foundation is the largest charitable supplier behind State and Territory Governments of children’s medical equipment and health initiatives nationwide. The Foundation works closely with health officials and communities to ensure all states and territories have access to the healthcare and equipment they need to help sick kids in hospital. Almost 50% of all funds raised by Humpty and its supporters go to rural and remote communities.
Humpty’s impact dramatically increases positive health outcomes for sick babies and children by ensuring hospitals have access to state-of-the-art, easy-to-use, and reliable equipment. Not only are the equipment and healthcare initiatives child-specific and appropriate for newborn and paediatric care, but having this equipment significantly reduces separation and anxiety between kids and their loved ones by allowing these sick children to receive the care they need close to home.
Individuals, schools, community and business organisations interested in supporting the Humpty Dumpty Foundation and their local hospital, either by donating a piece of medical equipment, making a general donation, or fundraising can visit www.humpty.org.au or contact the Humpty Dumpty Foundation on 1300 486 789 (1300 HUMPTY).
