DPIRD Comms Push-Ups for Lifeline
After stepping our way through the recent Step Challenge, we're not ready to stop just yet! We are keen to keep the good vibes (and movement) going by joining The Push-Up Challenge, and we’d love to open it up to the whole Comms Team.
We’re starting a DPIRD Comms Team within the wider DPIRD Community group for the challenge, raising funds and awareness for Lifeline Australia. It’s a great cause, a bit of fun, and a chance to support each other while doing something good for our own mental health too.
Whether you’re a push-up pro or a total beginner, everyone’s welcome. Let’s do this together
Supporting Lifeline

Lifeline exists to ensure no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.
Our crisis support services are available 24/7 to listen, without judgement, to any person in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, experiencing crisis or longs to be heard.
Experience shows us it is through connection that we can find hope. With Australians struggling with cost-of-living pressures, increasing inflation, housing insecurity, global instability, and recovery after extreme weather events, our crisis support services have remained in high demand with our voice and text services receiving up to 4,000 contacts a day from help seekers. Our partnership with The Push Up Challenge plays a vital role in raising funds to support the delivery of suicide prevention and crisis support services at a time where we have never been needed more.
Thank you for supporting Lifeline. Your fundraising is helping to save lives.
