Emergency relief & recovery

Partnering with Australian Red Cross is the way Medibank continues its long-standing tradition of supporting communities in times of need.

Encouraging people to plan and prepare for unexpected disaster is part of our focus. Medibank supports the Australian Red Cross National Disaster Preparedness Week each year as well as contributing to relief in times of crisis in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region when it’s needed most. 

Supporting events with healthy outcomes

At Medibank we are committed to investing in the health and wellbeing of the Australian community. This includes supporting a range of programs and events to encourage a healthier body, mind and spirit.

Parkrun

Medibank is a proud major sponsor of global running (and walking) phenomenon Parkrun. With a shared mission to create a healthier and happier community, Parkrun organises free, weekly, 5km timed runs in over 350 locations around Australia every Saturday morning. Medibank’s partnership is designed to make regular physical exercise more accessible to as many Australians as possible by breaking down barriers to entry and to encourage regular participation.  

Smiling Mind

Just as we eat well and stay fit to keep our bodies healthy, mindfulness meditation helps us keep our mind healthy.

Mindfulness is proven to lead to better attention, memory, regulation of emotions and self-awareness. In turn, improvements in these areas can lead to reduced stress, anxiety and depression, better academic skills, social skills, and self-esteem.

Designed by psychologists and educators, Smiling Mind is Australia’s leading mindfulness meditation app with over 4 million users providing a range of programs for adults, children and families. Through guided meditations and mindfulness activities, you can learn to manage the challenges of daily life at school, work and at home.

Medibank is proud to be the Official Health Partner of Smiling Mind, supporting their goal of reaching five million young people by 2021. Our commitment will help Smiling Mind expand its valuable tools and resources, particularly focusing on supporting parents with mindfulness programs they can use with their children.
