Crunches Challenge 2026

I’m passionate about dementia care. Core workouts? Significantly less passionate… But I’m taking on the Crunches Challenge this June to support Dementia Australia!

Dementia is now the leading cause of death in Australia. Currently, it is estimated that more than 446,500 Australians are living with dementia. Without a significant intervention, this number 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.

Day 1 done

Monday 1st Jun
Day 1 of Crunches for Dementia done. 💪

My abs are already drafting a formal complaint, but it’s a small price to pay for a cause that affects so many families.

If you’d like to support me (and make these crunches feel a little more worthwhile), I’d love a donation. Every dollar helps fund dementia research and support services. Click the link below:
