Men’s health in Australia is in dire straits. On average, men in Australia die 5 years younger than women. Sadly, every day, 50 Australian men (under 75 years of age) and boys die from preventable causes.

The good news is you don’t need to break down on the Nullarbor Plain to enjoy an adventure or admire the heavens sitting by a campfire. If you’re near the South Coast of New South Wales, plan to join us at the upcoming Dads4Kids Fun Camp at Coolendel, 7-8 November 2025.
