July Awareness

 

This morning I was visiting Melinda who had a post about July awareness she can be found here:https://lookingforthelight.blog/2026/07/02/july-2026-awareness-months-you-need-to-know/

So, I decided to do a similar post, so in Australia the big thing is Dry July which is A national campaign encouraging Australians to give up alcohol for the month to support adults living with cancer.

We also have JulEYE this is run by RANZCO’s Eye Foundation, promoting eye health and encouraging Australians to get their eyes tested.

July also has several awareness weeks they are listed here:

Kidney Action Week (1–7 July) — Raises awareness of kidney disease and encourages people to take a 2‑minute risk test.

National Diabetes Week (12–18 July) — Focuses on early detection and treatment of diabetes.

Birth Trauma Awareness Week (13–19 July) — Supports people affected by birth‑related trauma.

National Pain Week (26–31 July) — Highlights the needs of Australians living with chronic pain.

DonateLife Week (26 July – 2 August) — Promotes organ and tissue donation.
