Every five minutes, someone in Australia is diagnosed with diabetes.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia. 1 in 4 (26%) of all deaths.

Behind every diagnosis is a person navigating daily challenges – making choices about food, staying active, monitoring their health, and balancing the demands of work, family and everyday life.

With the right information, support and community connections, people can feel more confident in managing their health and reducing their risk of complications.

Your support helps provide education, resources and advocacy that empower people to live healthier lives and improve their long-term wellbeing.

Are standing desks better than sitting desks?

Standing desks can help you move more throughout the day, but standing all day isn’t necessarily better than sitting!

💡 For a healthier choice, focus on moving regularly throughout your workday. Alternate between sitting and standing, and take short breaks to stretch or walk around.

Small changes can make a difference!

A new study, led by researchers at the Deakin Centre for Global Preventive Health and Nutrition (GLOBE - https://deakin.au/4yJrAFZ), has found that while children are online, they are being hit with digital food marketing from major unhealthy food brands up to 27 times per hour.

This is the first time researchers have been able to accurately measure the food marketing that children see on their feeds and on social media platforms.

Proud to see our Bill Raby Diabetes Fellowship support help bring the Darwin Baseball Bash to life, creating a fun and welcoming way for the community to get active, learn new skills and connect through sport.

More than 20 people tried baseball for the first time, showing the value of creating accessible and relaxed opportunities for people to get active.

A big thank you to for creating another pathway for Territorians to get active and connected!
