The Western-Pacific鈥檚 largest diabetes and metabolic health congress has opened with a Community Day in Melbourne, delivering the 500,000^th Shane Warne Legacy health check to highlight the importance of cardiometabolic health screenings, and the urgent nature of the type 2 diabetes epidemic facing the region. 

Brendan Lynch, whose life was saved on the day the Shane Warne Legacy launched in 2023, will take the 500,000th health check alongside Shane Watson at the Community Day. Without the Shane Warne Legacy, Brendan simply would not be here today to mark this extraordinary milestone and take on this special honour at congress.聽

The milestone marks the start of four days of leading research, clinical best practice, and lived experience from delegates representing the wider Pacific through to South Korea, Japan, and India.  

Shane Warne was a fixture of Australian sport, both as a larger-than-life cricketer, but also as an iconic personality with a passion for community and helping people.    

Since launching in 2023 with founding partner Latrobe Health Services and health partner 芒果直播, the SWL Health Check program has prompted 1 in 5 participants to seek medical advice and 85% of participants to take action to improve their health following the free health check.   

The milestone comes as leading clinicians, researchers, educators, and community advocates gather for the biennial International Diabetes Federation 鈥� Western Pacific Region (IDF-WPR) Congress, being hosted in conjunction with the Australasian Diabetes Congress, and Metabolic Diseases 2026.  

An estimated 215 million people across the Western-Pacific region live with all types of diabetes, making it the most urgent and fastest-growing public health challenge in the region.  

Diabetes Australia Group CEO Justine Cain welcomed the Shane Warne Legacy Health Check milestone, saying the program demonstrated the important role screening and prevention could have in public health outcomes. 

鈥淚n聽Australia alone,聽there is a聽diabetes diagnosis every five聽minutes,聽with聽an estimated聽500,000 Australians聽silently聽living with聽undiagnosed聽type 2聽diabetes,鈥澛燤s Cain said.聽聽

鈥淭his Congress is an opportunity to showcase leading Australian research in diabetes management and prevention, the latest in clinical care, and to hear directly from people living with diabetes about their lives, how they live well with diabetes, as well as the latest innovations.鈥�  

Ms Cain said it was an honour to host the 500,000^th Shane Warne Legacy Health Check at the Community Day, saying the initiative had highlighted the importance of health screening in the community.  

鈥淩eaching half a million Shane Warne Legacy health checks is a remarkable achievement and a powerful reflection of Shane Warne鈥檚 enduring legacy,鈥� Ms Cain said.  

鈥淭o reach this milestone at an event focused on diabetes is especially meaningful, demonstrating the impact that awareness and early detection can have in improving health outcomes in communities across Australia and beyond.鈥� 

Former Australian Test and One Day International star Shane Watson and AFL icon and type 1 diabetes advocate Paddy McCartin joined 芒果直播鈥檚 Group CEO Justine Cain to open the Congress during a special Community Day session ahead of the main Congress program.    

Friend of the Shane Warne Legacy, Shane Watson, said his mate Warnie would be chuffed with the way the community had embraced the Legacy program, rolling up their sleeves in the name of better health. 

鈥淪hane would have been so proud of the impact that鈥檚 being achieved through these health checks,鈥� Mr Watson said.  

鈥淚 have a history of type 2 diabetes in my family, so encouraging people to get a free health check and understand their risk factors is something that鈥檚 very close to my heart. To do that in Shane鈥檚 honour and see it be such a success is a real privilege.鈥�  

AFL legend and type 1 diabetes advocate Paddy McCartin said the Congress would be a place for people living with all types of diabetes to hear the latest in research and innovation, while sharing community and lived experience stories.  

 
“I want every person diagnosed to know that this condition doesn鈥檛 have to hold you back. With the right support and mindset, you can achieve anything.” 

Ms Cain said the Congress and Community Day would explore the impact that diabetes has on not just the individual but on the wider community and the health system, as well as inspiring stories of resilience, and growth, among the latest from global leaders in diabetes, metabolic, and cardiovascular research.聽

鈥淭oo often, conversations about diabetes happen without enough input from the people who live with it every day. Community Day is about changing that. It puts the voices, experiences and聽expertise聽of people living with diabetes at the centre of the discussion, because they are experts in what it takes to live well with this condition,鈥� Ms Cain said.聽

鈥淏ringing together people living with diabetes, families, clinicians, researchers and advocates alongside global experts creates a powerful opportunity to learn from one another, challenge assumptions and drive meaningful change,鈥� she said. 

Shane Warne Legacy health check stations are available as part of a dedicated Community Day at the International Diabetes Federation Western Pacific Region Congress. 

Free Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks, conducted on SiSU Health Stations, are non-invasive, fast, and free. They include measurements of blood pressure, cholesterol, body mass index (BMI), type 2 diabetes risk, and estimated heart age – crucial indicators of cardiometabolic health. 

The International Diabetes Federation Western Pacific Region Congress will take place this week alongside the Australasian Diabetes Congress and Metabolic Diseases 2026 hosted with the Australian Diabetes Society and the Australian Diabetes Educators Association.  

The event is being delivered in collaboration with the Melbourne Convention Bureau and with support from the Victorian Government鈥檚 Business Events and Tourism Australia鈥檚 Events Bid Fund Program. 

芒果直播 has been appointed to deliver the Commonwealth-funded Insulin Pump Program (IPP).

This announcement will see 芒果直播 deliver the program over the next 3 years on behalf of the Australian Government, ensuring continued access to life-changing diabetes technology for eligible young Australians living with type 1 diabetes.

The Insulin Pump Program was established by the Australian Government in 2008 and has been delivered by Breakthrough T1D Australia (formerly JDRF Australia) since its inception. Originally supporting children under 18 facing the greatest financial barriers to accessing insulin pump therapy, the program expanded in 2022 to include eligible young people up to 21 years of age following sustained advocacy by Breakthrough T1D and the type 1 diabetes community.

The program builds on more than 18 years of delivery by Breakthrough T1D Australia, which established and administered the IPP on behalf of the Australian Government from its inception in 2008.

The IPP provides fully subsidised insulin pumps to children and young people under the age of 21 who meet both financial and clinical eligibility criteria.

芒果直播 Group CEO Justine Cain said delivering the IPP further demonstrates the organisation鈥檚 commitment to supporting people living with diabetes.

鈥淎n insulin pump isn鈥檛 just a medical device, it can be a life saver,鈥� she said.

鈥溍⒐辈� is standing on the frontline of technology access by taking on the delivery of the IPP and we鈥檙e committed to doing so in the best interests of people living with diabetes.

鈥淏y removing significant upfront costs, this program improves access to pumps that would otherwise be financially out of reach for many families,鈥� Ms Cain said.

Insulin pump therapy plays a critical role in supporting improved blood glucose management and enhancing quality of life. It reduces the daily burden of diabetes management by minimising the need for multiple daily injections and enabling more flexible routines for children and their families.

鈥淚mportantly, the IPP helps reduce stress for families, allowing them to focus more on their child鈥檚 overall health and wellbeing.

鈥溍⒐辈� will ensure continuity of access for all existing participants throughout the transition period, with no disruption to current support arrangements,鈥� Ms Cain said.

Delivering the IPP reinforces 芒果直播鈥檚 commitment to improving outcomes and access to care for Australians living with diabetes, particularly children and young people who can benefit most from early access to advanced technology.

The program has a limited number of insulin pumps available each year, and meeting the eligibility criteria does not guarantee that a pump will be available at the time of application.

芒果直播, Australian聽Unity聽and Deakin University join forces to build a more complete picture of life with diabetes.聽

For the first time, the Australian Unity Wellbeing Index will be used to build the most complete picture yet of how diabetes affects Australian鈥檚 lives beyond clinical outcomes and health system costs, thanks to a partnership聽between聽芒果直播,聽Deakin University, and the Australian Unity Support Foundation.聽聽

The partnership will explore a growing recognition that the true impact of diabetes is not fully captured by hospital visits, treatment costs, or clinical measures alone. 

Current estimates place the financial cost of diabetes to the health system at $9 billion year, but this measure just captures clinical settings.  

International studies indicate that at least one quarter of the impact happens outside of the health system, meaning the real impact to Australians living with diabetes may be vastly under-represented.  

Diabetes impacts beyond clinical management to include mental wellbeing, financial security, personal relationships, community connection and people鈥檚 ability to shape their own lives. 

And, with more than two million Australians living with both diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes, the effects extend to many corners of life.   

Now, the nation鈥檚 leading wellbeing index will produce the most comprehensive snapshot yet of diabetes鈥� wider impact, aiming to shift the conversation towards recognising whole-of-life impact rather than solely relying on health system interactions.   

The Australian Unity Wellbeing Index is a fixture on the national policy-making calendar, with this partnership bringing together the Australian Unity Support Foundation, 芒果直播, and Deakin University to deliver a landmark research project focused on the lived experience of diabetes.   

The partnership was formally launched at聽a聽forum in Melbourne聽today (Wednesday, 12 August), bringing together health leaders, researchers and people living with diabetes to examine what it means to live well with聽diabetes, where聽new聽research is聽needed聽and聽what health systems, services and policymakers can do to better support聽care and management outside of clinical settings.聽聽

The launch comes ahead of next weeks鈥� International Diabetes Federation Western Pacific Region Congress in Melbourne, where researchers from Deakin University, the Australian Unity Support Foundation and 芒果直播 will introduce the initiative to an international health, research and lived-experience audience. 

Kelly Bayer Rosmarin, Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Australian Unity, said the partnership would help build a more complete understanding of whether Australia鈥檚 health and support systems were working for people living with diabetes.  

鈥淲ellbeing isn鈥檛 a soft add-on to healthcare. It is one of the clearest ways we can understand whether care is improving people鈥檚 lives ,鈥� Ms Bayer Rosmarin said.  

鈥淔or more than twenty-five years Australian Unity has studied what helps Australians live well. By applying that evidence to the lived experience of people with diabetes, we can build a clearer picture of what people need and help shape better policy, services and support.鈥�  

Justine Cain, Group CEO, 芒果直播, said the partnership would give greater visibility to the unseen impact of living with diabetes.  

鈥淐linical measures such as glucose monitoring remain essential, but can鈥檛 tell us about the impact diabetes has on daily life,鈥� Ms Cain said.  

鈥淒iabetes care cannot be judged by clinical outcomes alone. If clinicians focus exclusively on HbA1c, weight or other clinical indicators without considering how people feel, function and live with their condition, they are not providing truly person-centred care. 

鈥淧eople living with diabetes can make up to 180 extra decisions a day, and they tell us the impact extends to their mental health, relationships, finances, work and sense of independence. This partnership puts those lived experiences at the centre of the evidence to help us better understand the real cost, and where change is needed,鈥� she said.  

Dr Kate Lycett of Deakin University said rigorous research would provide a pathway for lived experience to inform meaningful policy and practice.  

鈥淐ombining established wellbeing measures with the experiences of people living with diabetes will give us a much richer understanding of the condition鈥檚 impact,鈥� Dr Lycett said.  

鈥淒eakin鈥檚 role is to ensure the partnership is underpinned by rigorous, evidence-based research that can translate lived experience into meaningful improvements in policy, programs and services.鈥�  

People living with diabetes will contribute throughout the development of the research, including through 芒果直播鈥檚 Blue Circle Collective, to ensure the questions asked and the insights generated reflect real-world experiences and priorities.  

The partners intend for the research to contribute to future policy submissions, service design, advocacy and program development, with further details about the research methodology and timing to be announced as the program progresses. 

A new partnership between 芒果直播 and the Medibank Better Health Research Hub will support Monash University to develop a primary care model to better detect and prevent type 2 diabetes in women living with polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS). 

PMOS, formerly known as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), is a hormonal and metabolic condition affecting 1 in 8 women in Australia, with impacts on weight, mental health and wellbeing, skin and the reproductive system.  

Despite women living with the condition having a significantly higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, they often face challenges in diagnosis and prevention options in primary care settings. 

The project will pilot a new screening and management tool for women living with PMOS that integrates into existing general practice workflows, aiming to streamline identification, referrals to specialists and prevention programs including the Get Healthy Service administered by 芒果直播, as well as shared decision-making, into existing approaches to care.  

芒果直播 Group CEO Justine Cain said the project highlighted a significant gap in women鈥檚 health research, with PMOS a well-known risk factor that could help identify and prevent or delay type 2 diabetes.  

鈥淲omen living with PMOS are four times more likely to develop diabetes over their lifetime. That鈥檚 a statistic we鈥檙e hoping to change through the development of better screening and prevention tools,鈥� Ms Cain said.  

鈥淧MOS, like diabetes, can be hard to diagnose, and affects hormonal balance for up to one in eight women. 

鈥淗istoric and ongoing research gaps in women鈥檚 health further complicate this challenge, meaning many women who are diagnosed with PMOS aren鈥檛 informed about their elevated diabetes risk, which is a real concern.  

鈥溍⒐辈� is excited to partner with Medibank and Monash University to deliver research that will drive real change in women鈥檚 health outcomes.鈥� 

Dr Shona Sundaraj, Group Medical Director at Medibank said the research is an opportunity to improve health outcomes for women. 

鈥淭oo many women living with PMOS are not informed about their elevated risk of type 2 diabetes until much later in their healthcare journey,鈥� Dr Sundaraj said. 

鈥淏y better supporting GPs to identify and manage this risk in their patients, we have an opportunity to intervene earlier and improve the long-term health outcomes for our patients.  

鈥淔or the women themselves, it鈥檚 about giving them the knowledge and tools to empower them in their health and healthcare.鈥� 

Monash University Centre for Health Research and Implementation lead investigator Dr Stephanie Cowan said the award would help advance primary care and screening tools that better cater for women鈥檚 health needs.  

鈥淭his funding gives us the opportunity to move beyond knowing what good care looks like for women with PMOS and actually build the systems and tools that make it possible in everyday practice,鈥� Dr Cowan said.  

鈥淏y embedding guideline-recommended screening and lifestyle support directly into GP workflows, this project will ensure that the millions of Australian women with PMOS who face a four-fold higher risk of type 2 diabetes are identified early and connected to care before that risk becomes reality.鈥� 

The project will start in July 2026 and operate until June 2028.  

A total of $230,000 will be invested, with contributions from 芒果直播 and the Medibank Better Health Research Hub to support this important research led by Monash University. 

芒果直播 warmly welcomes Chief Health Officer Brett Fenton’s appointment as an Adjunct Clinical Fellow at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS).

This honorary appointment recognises Mr Fenton’s significant expertise and leadership across the diabetes and healthcare sectors, as well as his ongoing contribution to improving outcomes for people living with, or at risk of, diabetes.

The role further strengthens 芒果直播’s connection to academic and clinical research, supporting the organisation’s commitment to evidence informed practice, advocacy, and service delivery.

Through the appointment, 芒果直播 will benefit from closer engagement with contemporary research and emerging evidence, helping to build valuable partnerships and further strengthen its clinical leadership work 鈥� supporting its purpose to reduce the impact on people living with, or at risk of, diabetes.

Group CEO Justine Cain said 芒果直播 is proud of this well-deserved recognition.

“Brett’s appointment highlights his personal contribution to the diabetes sector, and the important role 芒果直播 plays in translating evidence into action for people living with or at risk of diabetes.

“We congratulate Brett on this significant achievement,” she said.

Mr Fenton said he was looking forward to building stronger connections between research, education and practice to help ensure the best available evidence informs 芒果直播’s work.

“Throughout my career, I have been passionate about ensuring that evidence translates into meaningful improvements in care, services and outcomes for people living with diabetes,” Mr Fenton said.

“I would like to thank Dr Shannon Lin and colleagues at UTS for their support, and acknowledge the many colleagues, consumers, researchers, clinicians and partners who continue to contribute to improving outcomes for people living with or at risk of diabetes,” he said.

New report shows free Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks are changing lives

Latrobe Health Services, a not-for-profit member-owned health fund, has partnered with the Shane Warne Legacy since 2023 and is proud to be the Legacy’s Founding Partner, supporting the delivery of free health checks to communities across Australia.

Together with Health Partner, 芒果直播, the partnership has supported Shane Warne Legacy to deliver free health checks across the country, raising awareness of cardiovascular and type 2 diabetes risks.

The Shane Warne Legacy Health Check program has brought more than 490,000 free, accessible health checks into places where people already go such as major sporting events, Priceline Pharmacies, workplaces and community events, making early action in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes easier.

Recent research commissioned by Latrobe Health, in collaboration with IPSOS, surveyed over 1,224 people aged 18 to 65 from diverse demographics and metro and regional locations, comparing those who have undergone health checks with those who have not.

The findings reveal critical insights into health literacy, motivations and behaviours surrounding the health checks.

Results of the research show:

• 85% of health check participants took action as a result of their health check

• 78% of health check participants felt more able to take proactive steps to prevent serious health issues (84% for those participants with a risk factor)

• 52% of health check participants believe the health check improved their health, with regional participants (60%) more likely to agree with this statement

• 39% of health check participants felt the health check was the single most important thing they had done for their health in 12 months, jumping to 43% for regional Australians and 45% for those with a risk factor

• 20% of health check participants booked an appointment with a healthcare provider

• 94% of participants would recommend the health check to others

Additionally, the research indicates that the vast majority (85%) of Shane Warne Legacy Health Check
participants went on to do something good for their health, from improving diet and increasing exercise to seeking medical advice. For those at higher risk, that number is significantly higher at 91%, with many taking more proactive steps such as booking follow-up appointments with their doctor or researching their health further.

As a not-for-profit health fund, Latrobe Health Services is all in on improving inclusivity and equity in healthcare, especially for those in rural and regional areas. Regional participants, in particular, valued the Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks as a practical solution where health services can be harder to reach.

The primary motivator for taking a health check was it being free, followed by curiosity about personal
health, particularly in regional areas where access to health information and services is often limited.
Regional participants demonstrated proactivity post-check, notably in improving diet and scheduling
follow-up health appointments.

鈥淭his research confirms what we鈥檝e always believed: when barriers to health screening are removed, people engage with the screening and act on their results. Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks are helping more Australians understand their health, act on potential risks sooner and take meaningful steps towards a healthier future,鈥� said Ian Whitehead, CEO of Latrobe Health Services.

鈥淭he outcomes for people taking advantage of the free health checks are clear 鈥� they only take five minutes and can spark positive changes in your life,鈥� added Whitehead.

The checks, conducted on SiSU Health Stations, are non-invasive, fast, and free. They include
measurements of blood pressure, cholesterol, body mass index (BMI), diabetes risk, and estimated heart age – crucial indicators of cardiometabolic health.

鈥淭his research confirms what we鈥檝e seen on the ground since day one. People don鈥檛 avoid their health
because they don鈥檛 care, they avoid it because it鈥檚 hard to access and harder to understand. Strip away those barriers and give people clear answers, and they act. That鈥檚 the whole idea behind Shane Warne Legacy, and these results tell us we鈥檙e just getting started,鈥� stated Rob Tassie, CEO of Shane Warne Legacy.

鈥淎lmost half a million health checks and counting. But the number that matters most to me is 85 per
cent, that鈥檚 how many people did something about their health as a result. That鈥檚 real impact, and it鈥檚
why we鈥檒l keep pushing to get these checks in front of more Australians,鈥� added Tassie.

鈥淪hane Warne Legacy Health Checks are a powerful tool in the prevention of type 2 diabetes, and this
report demonstrates the powerful impact they are having in the community,鈥� said Justine Cain, Group
CEO of 芒果直播.

The Shane Warne Legacy Health Checks exemplify the critical importance of bringing healthcare to
where people are. With the right technology and partnerships, lives can be changed in mere minutes.

Thanks to support from Latrobe Health Services and 芒果直播, these life-changing health
checks are available for free across Australia, marking a new model for nationwide health intervention.

Aussies living with diabetes have again claimed medals at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games overnight (Australian time), with Blue Circle Collective Ambassador Lara McSpadden鈥檚 Women鈥檚 Gangurrus victorious in the 3×3 basketball tournament.   

Defeating Uganda 21-11 in the final, McSpadden played a key role in a dominant team result, claiming gold for Australia, and headlining four Aussie medals across basketball.    

Competing in elite basketball while living with type 1 diabetes, McSpadden spoke about her life in sport as part of National Diabetes Week 2026 earlier this month.  

Joining the Living Out Loud campaign, she shared what she wished people knew about life with diabetes.  

“I wish people knew you can represent Australia with diabetes.鈥� 

芒果直播 has congratulated McSpadden on her achievement, which shows that diabetes is no barrier to elite team sport on the world stage.    

National Diabetes Week was held from 12-18 July, and also featured fellow Commonwealth Games athlete, and now fastest man in Australian history and 100m silver medallist, Lachie Kennedy.
