Crunches Challenge 2026

I'm taking on the Crunches Challenge this June for Dementia Australia - in memory of my dear Pa

My beloved Pa died last year from dementia. It is a cruel disease and it was so hard to watch him deteriorate and suffer. I admire my mum, dad and brother for all they did for Pa and looking after him at home so well. 

Currently, it is estimated that more than 446,500 Australians are living with dementia. Without a significant intervention, the number of Australians living with dementia is expected to increase to more than 1 million by 2065.

Your contribution will make a world of difference for people impacted by dementia, every donation big or small counts!

Thank you so much for your support.
