If you’re unsure about your symptoms or your level of risk, speak to your doctor or visit our pharmacy team. We’re here to help guide you with trusted advice and support. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

It’s unacceptable! Stop the neglect of bone health.

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and fragile — breaking easily, even from a small fall or simple movement. Worldwide, one in three women and one in five men aged 50+ will suffer an osteoporotic fracture.

💪 Move for your bones! Walk, run, climb stairs, lift weights, or join a gym — regular physical activity helps keep your bones strong and healthy.

Let’s take bone health seriously. Speak to our pharmacists about ways to strengthen your bones and protect your future.

Speak to our pharmacists in-store for respiratory health advice and protective products.

Did you know? Arthritis is the second most common cause of early retirement due to ill-health in Australia.

More than 2.8 million Australians of working age are living with arthritis — and by 2030, nearly 59,000 people aged 15–54 could be unable to work because of this condition.

This World Arthritis Day, we’re joining to raise awareness for the millions of Australians living with arthritis.

Let’s raise awareness, support those affected, and inspire action for better care and understanding.

This World Arthritis Day, we’re celebrating the power of dreams - big and small. Inspired by the theme for 2025 “Achieve Your Dreams,” we know that every journey with arthritis is unique, and each dream matters.

Whether it’s overcoming daily challenges, finding support, or reaching a personal milestone, your story has the power to inspire others and drive change in our community.

Share your dream - no matter how big or small - in the comments or tag us.
Let’s raise awareness, break down myths, and show what it truly means to live with arthritis in Australia.
