The Funding Agreement between CQUniversity and Preventive Health SA for the dissemination and evaluation of the 10,000 Steps program in South Australia comes to an end on 30 June 2025. As a result, several changes will be made to how the program is delivered and accessed in South Australia.
This page outlines what members and coordinators can expect moving forward, including updates to support services, communications, and statewide initiatives. While some services will be discontinued, individual members can sign up for free and continue to use their interactive Dashboard, and organisations will retain access to some tools and resources in their Coordinator Hub.
Changes for SA Organisations and Members
As of 30 June 2025 several immediate changes to program delivery and access for South Australian members include:
- Priority Support: The project team will no longer respond to individual or organisation enquiries from South Australia. However, comprehensive online support resources will remain available.
- Tournament Invite Code: Adding members via the Tournament Invite Code not be available for SA Organisations. Coordinators can still add members using email addresses or by rolling over participants from previous Tournaments.
- Campaign Emails: Automated email series such as the Welcome Series for new members and Tournament Success Series for new organisations will no longer be sent to SA members and coordinators. Essential transactional emails (e.g., team additions, password resets, email verification) will continue.
- Billion Steps Challenges: The state-wide steps challenges will no longer be delivered in South Australia.
CQUniversity would like to acknowledge and thank the Government of South Australia for their contribution to the 10,000 Steps program's innovation and dissemination across South Australia between 2020-2025. A summary of the impact of the 10,000 Steps program in South Australia will be shared in the near future.
