Curtin Student Law Society

💙 Join Curtin SLS in The Push-Up Challenge 2026! 💙

From 3–26 June, we're taking part in Australia's largest mental health and fitness event to raise awareness, start important conversations, and support better mental health outcomes across Australia.

Participants can complete daily push-up targets (or alternative exercises such as squats, sit-ups, walking, or running) over 24 days. You can also choose to complete half the target, making the challenge accessible to all fitness levels.

Whether you're looking to challenge yourself, improve your wellbeing, support an important cause, or connect with fellow law students, we'd love for you to get involved.

Last Tuesday, the CSLS participated in the Walk for Justice in support of Law Access Limited.

We are extremely proud to announce that CSLS was recognised as the top university fundraising team, raising $10,343 for this important cause. This also marks the fourth consecutive year CSLS has received this recognition for the Walk for Justice.

This achievement would not have been possible without the generosity, enthusiasm, and dedication of our committee, sponsors, staff, students, alumni, friends, family, and wider community, who supported us throughout the campaign. We are deeply grateful to everyone who donated, shared our fundraiser, attended events, or contributed in any way.

Throughout the fundraising campaign, the CSLS hosted five dedicated fundraising events and also contributed a portion of proceeds from our merchandise sales towards our fundraising efforts.

Law Access plays an important role in enhancing access to justice across the Western Australian community by linking vulnerable and disadvantaged people with essential legal support. Their work has a meaningful impact on individuals who might otherwise face difficulties obtaining legal assistance when they need it most.

A special thank you to Curtin Law School for their continued support of CSLS and our fundraising initiatives throughout the campaign.
