Do It Anyway is the theme of Women’s Health Week 2026, encouraging women to take meaningful steps towards better wellbeing, no matter how busy or challenging life may be.
It’s about embracing progress over perfection through movement, nutrition, rest, mental wellbeing, and connection.
In honour of Women’s Health Week, we’re highlighting some of the remarkable women we’ve interviewed whose stories inspire us to keep showing up, keep striving, and do it anyway.

The ANMF has launched ‘Australia needs care you can count on’ at Parliament House today, calling on the federal government to deliver urgent reforms in the aged care sector, including mandated staffing ratios.
The campaign follows the ANMF’s recent national survey of frontline aged care workers, which found the sector was still experiencing systemic understaffing, increased workplace violence, cost-cutting and a lack of transparency for billions of dollars in taxpayer funding.

REMINDER TO MIDWIVES - HAVE YOU COMPLETED THE FUCHSIA NATIONAL STUDY?

Are you a midwife working in an Australian maternity service, employed at a university, or practising privately?

You may have received the survey through your maternity service, university or directly from Professor Della Forster — but if not or if missed completing it, this is your invitation to take part.

The FUCHSIA national study is exploring the sustainability of the Australian midwifery profession.

We want to hear from midwives across Australia about their health and wellbeing, their workplace experiences, why they work as midwives, and their future in the profession.

By giving voice to midwives, this study aims to help identify workforce issues and improve working conditions.

A huge safety win for nursing staff at Yalata Labour Prison has been achieved thanks to the advocacy of members.

After members raised a range of concerns regarding workplace safety and facilities, including a lack of adequately safe car parking for staff, ANMF SA met directly with the employer, South Australian Prison Health Service (SAPHS) to escalate the concerns and push for action.

As a result, SAPHS has agreed to assign 10 dedicated staff carparks on site, adjacent to the gatehouse.

In addition, SAPHS has also committed to, or completed, a range of other workplace improvements, including:

✔️ Repair of the fire exit door near the Nurse Unit Manager's office
✔️ Installation of locks on clinic room cabinetry
✔️ Review of waste management processes
✔️ Review of storage arrangements
✔️ Commitment to a review of MER equipment
