Uniting past and present athletes from the internationally-renowned All Blacks, All Black Sevens, Black Ferns and Black Ferns Sevens, the campaign follows global research from Bupa revealing that 71% of young adults (18–44 year-olds) believe role models can inspire positive health change.Each player is captured not just as an athlete but as a person with a word they have personally chosen to represent their unique health and wellness story – from depression, anxiety and loss, to stroke, cancer and diabetes – displayed on the individual, revealing the human behind the jersey.Ruby Tui, current Black Fern #235, 2020 Olympic gold medallist, and 2021 World Cup winner, said: "There are a lot of eyes on you when you're a high-performance athlete, but the human story beyond the pitch can often be overlooked when it's just as important for us as individuals. I hope this campaign from Bupa sheds light on the importance of our individual health and wellness journeys and inspires more people to make their health a priority that they talk about openly and honestly."Among the stories featured, 2011 World Cup winner Aaron Cruden reflects on his battle with testicular cancer, while Maiakawanakaulani Roos, the youngest-ever captain of the Black Ferns, opens up about how personal loss during high school shaped her approach to teamwork and leadership.
