👟 What if 30 people from our community joined Can Do the Distance?

If each person raised just $400 (that's only 10 donations of $40), together we could raise $12,000 to help local people facing cancer through our Can Assist branch.

🫂 That's the power of our community coming together.

This August, we're inviting our community to take on Can Do the Distance. Can Assist's month-long walking challenge that helps local people with the everyday costs of cancer treatment. You don't have to be a marathon runner, and you don't have to walk every day. Simply choose a distance that suits you, ask your family and friends to support you, and every dollar you raise stays right here in our community.

Your fundraising helps local people with fuel, accommodation, travel, parking, medical expenses and other everyday costs, so they can focus their treatment. Whether you're walking for a loved one, a friend, a neighbour, or simply because you believe in looking after our community, every step makes a real difference.

Registrations are now open. Join our branch, start fundraising today, and walk with us this August.

Who will you walk for this August? 💚

Not every cancer journey starts in a hospital. For our people, it starts with hours on the road.

That's why we're looking for people in our community to take on Can Do the Distance this August and help ensure no one faces cancer alone.

When you join Can Do the Distance, you're doing more than logging steps. Every dollar you raise goes directly back to our local Can Assist branch, helping local people facing cancer with the practical costs of treatment: fuel, accommodation, travel, parking and other everyday expenses.

Whether you're walking in memory of someone, beside someone, or to make sure no one in our community has to face cancer alone, every step has purpose.

The best part? Your impact stays local. The funds you raise help people in our own community, when they need it most.

Register today, start fundraising now, and walk with us this August.

💚 Can Do the Distance Registrations are now open.

Too many people don't discover Can Assist until they're already in crisis. This August, let's change that.

Join our branch and help raise funds and awareness, so more of our people know support is available before the financial pressure of cancer becomes overwhelming.

💲Every dollar you raise stays with our branch, helping local people with the everyday costs of treatment: fuel, accommodation, travel, parking, medical expenses and more.

You don't need to be the fastest. You don't need to walk the furthest. You just need to take the first step to help make Can Assist visible in our community, because every person who hears about Can Assist today is one more person who knows where to turn tomorrow.

👟 Walk for someone you love. Walk for a friend. Walk for a neighbour. Walk because no one in our community should face cancer alone.

👉 Sign up, select our branch and let's do the distance together: https://www.candothedistance.org.au/

When someone in our community is diagnosed with cancer, life can change overnight. Along with treatment comes the cost of travel, accommodation, medication and everyday expenses.

That's where our volunteers step in. Every day, our people are helping local families through some of life's toughest moments. That support is only possible because of our community. The people who volunteer, donate, fundraise and look out for one another.

One thing we hear far too often is: "I didn't know Can Assist could help with that." We want to change that.

Did you know our branch may be able to help with:
🚗 Fuel costs for travel to and from treatment
🏡 Accommodation while away from home
💊 Treatment-related medications
🛒 Everyday living expenses, such as utility bills and grocery vouchers

Please share this post. You never know who among your family, friends or neighbours may need our support one day. Together, we can make sure more people in our community know that help is here before they need it.

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, the impact reaches far beyond the individual. It's a partner, a parent, a grandparent, a friend or a neighbour. In an instant, life can be turned upside down. The diagnosis, appointments, decisions and uncertainty can leave patients and their families feeling overwhelmed at a time when they need support most.

That's why your support matters.

As part of the Can Assist family, our branch is powered by local volunteers, donors and supporters who believe no one should face cancer alone. Together, we can help people in our community access the practical and financial support they need throughout their cancer journey.

As the end of the financial year approaches, there are many ways you can make a difference:

🤝 Every hand helps – Volunteer your time and skills.
💚 Every donation matters – Make a tax-deductible gift before 30 June.
🏡 Every dollar raised stays local – Supporting people in our community when they need it most.

💙 Men's Health Week is a chance to start important conversations and support the health and wellbeing of men and boys in our community.

When it comes to cancer, early detection can save lives. Knowing the signs and symptoms, keeping up with regular health checks, and speaking to a doctor when something doesn't feel right are simple steps that can make a big difference.

While Men's Health Week shines a spotlight on these conversations, looking after your health is important all year round. Take a moment to check in with yourself, a mate, your dad, brother, partner, colleague, or neighbour.

A simple conversation could encourage someone to book that appointment, seek support, or get something checked sooner rather than later.

Just a little reminder to check in on your people. 💛

Send the text. Make the call. Drop in for a cuppa. Invite them for a walk.

When someone's going through a tough time, it's often the little things that mean the most. A simple "How are you going?" can remind someone they're not alone.

To all our volunteers and supporters who continue to look out for one another — thank you.
