Croakey provides a rare platform to explore public health issues from a range of perspectives. Melissa and Marie have supported #cripcroakey, a series of articles about disability and health, at a time of profound change in disability policy that needs scrutiny and analysis. Croakey’s backing of writers from diverse backgrounds is a fantastic addition to Australian media.

HUGE congratulations to all the Croakey team on your coverage of our Summit. To say we have been delighted with the event, your coverage and the wash up is an understatement. You did such a fantastic job. I know how much there was to synthesise! I was particularly impressed with the flair and variety in how you approached the various pieces of coverage.Â

The old media is no longer able to meet the information needs of the 21st-century. News and opinion sites are blossoming but ones which specialise in, and have expertise in, healthcare in Australia are few and far between. Croakey Health Media’s focus on equity in primary care is unique and welcome. It fills an important niche, providing very thoughtful and useful analysis and commentary.

Researchers and research organisations can increase their real- world impact by engaging with public debate and public interest organisations like Croakey Health Media. Being involved with Croakey has helped me become a better writer and communicator, with benefits for my research and students.

Croakey gives us our daily dose of independent thinking, discussion and debate on all things public health. The broad mix of contributors, topics and prolific tweets combine to make it a valuable and lively source of news and food for thought for all Australians.
