NUC IS BACK: BIGGER AND BETTER THAN EVER

122,000 Australians experience homelessness every night. Not someday - but tonight. Nedd's Uncomfortable Challenge is a community coming together to end homelessness in Australia. For 10 days, challengers across Australia do something hard so thousands of people don't have to sleep rough. Last year we raised $1.6 million for We Are Mobilise. This year we're going for $2 million. Are you in?

IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE NO ONE SLEEPS ON THE STREETS...

We're making a real impact on those experiencing homelessness in Australia. Sadly, as cost-of-living pressures increase, more and more people need our help. The good news is that we are having a real impact on changing people's lives - all because we are getting uncomfortable and doing it for someone else - so let's keep going, and continue to help our fellow Aussies in need.

WHERE DO THE DONATIONS GO AND HOW DO THEY HELP?

Every dollar raised goes straight to finding a safe home for people experiencing homelessness, through We Are Mobilise - Australia Direct Giving platform. This happens in every state and territory through Mobilise's network of 50+ charity partners. Every $36 raised funds a night of housing.

Since Nedd's first run in 2022, We Are Mobilise has helped over 1,500 people into stable housing and counting. Your fundraising page isn't a number on a leaderboard; it's someone's next home.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Nedd’s Uncomfortable Challenge?

add remove

NUC is a national initiative from 2026 Young Australian of the Year, Nedd Brockmann, built on one idea he lives by: get uncomfortable and do it for good. Participants take on something uncomfortable, push through it, and raise money for Australians experiencing homelessness, walking away knowing they're capable of more than they thought. Tens of thousands have taken it on, supporting each other as a community.

How does the challenge work?

add remove

You'll be doing your uncomfortable challenge between the 19th and 28th of October. Pick something that makes you uncomfortable and commit to doing it every single day across those 10 days. It just has to be uncomfortable to you, and you have to show up for it every day. It can be anything from a fitness-based challenge to something that tests your discipline or willpower.

What are the dates for Nedd's Uncomfortable Challenge?

add remove

The challenge runs from the 19th to the 28th of October. There are also two Super Days to rally around: Schools Super Day on 16 October and Gyms Super Day on 24 October. A lot of people do their challenge at other times throughout the year, which is possible. The fundraising page will be open all year around.

What is Nedd Brockmann doing now?
