Women's Health Week is a nationwide campaign of events and online activities – all centred on improving women's health and helping to make healthier choices.
Every September, for one week, Women’s Health Week is a reminder to set aside time for your health and wellbeing. Make an appointment for a health check, get active, join an event or simply connect with other women. You don't have to do it alone.
This year’s event is being held from 5-11 September with the message ‘It’s all about you’. Celebrating its 10th year, the Women’s Health Week annual campaign is the biggest week in Australia dedicated to good health and wellbeing for women, girls and gender-diverse people.
In 2021 (despite a second year impacted by lockdowns and restrictions), more than 128,000 women participated in 2277 events, more than 54,000 women subscribed to the online campaign and which reached over 3.6 million people via social media.
This year’s Women’s Health Week daily themes are:
- Day 1: Check me out – health checks at every age
- Day 2: Menopause matters – menopause and perimenopause
- Day 3: Pelvic power – pelvic floor health and pelvic pain
- Day 4: Mind health – mental wellbeing and brain health
- Day 5: Move and improve – physical activity and your health
