❤️💛🖤 We are proud to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and families facing cancer within our local community.

This National Reconciliation Week, we reflect on this year’s theme, All In — a reminder that reconciliation is everyone’s responsibility, and meaningful change happens when we all show up, listen, learn and walk together.

We acknowledge the strength, resilience and knowledge of First Nations peoples, and remain committed to supporting communities with compassion, connection and cancer care close to home.

June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month.

Bowel cancer is one of Australia's most common cancers, yet many people are unaware of the signs and symptoms until it's too late.

This month is a reminder to listen to your body, prioritise screening, and seek medical advice if something doesn't feel right.

Early detection can save lives.
Awareness can save lives.
Conversations can save lives.

Because cancer doesn't wait - and neither should we 💛

One routine scan. One appointment she attended alone. Four words that changed everything.

At just 28 years old, Kate discovered a lump and believed it was likely hormonal. Instead, she was diagnosed with grade 3 hormone-receptive breast cancer.

What followed was surgery, fertility preservation, chemotherapy, radiation, uncertainty, and the reality that many regional Australians face every day when navigating cancer treatment.

For Kate, treatment wasn't simply about appointments and recovery. It meant long drives, travel costs, time away from home, and the additional challenges that come with living in regional NSW.

Today, Kate is cancer-free.

Her story is a powerful reminder that cancer can affect anyone, at any age, and that access to support can make an enormous difference during treatment.

Thank you to for sharing Kate's story and helping shine a light on the realities faced by regional Australians living with cancer.

Please take a moment to read, share and help raise awareness.
Every share helps another person understand why support services for regional cancer patients matter.

📣National Volunteer Week (18–24 May)

Thank you to every one of our wonderful Can Assist volunteers. This week, we recognise and celebrate the time, care and heart you give to supporting locals affected by cancer across country NSW. 💛

Volunteering Australia's 2026 theme, Your Year to Volunteer, celebrates the contribution of volunteers and encourages people to dedicate time to meaningful volunteer work.

💐A cancer diagnosis doesn't just affect someone's health. For women in country communities, it can quietly take options away — including the chance to become a mother, to be there for their children, or simply to access the care they deserve. No woman should face those choices alone because of where she lives or the cost of care. That is why Can Assist exists.

This Mother's Day, we're holding space for all of them.

This photograph captures three generations of women, Helen, Leanne, and Ivy, holding close the memory of Ellie. A daughter, a sister, a mother. Ellie passed away at just 27 after bravely facing a rare cancer.

Whether this Mother's Day is one of celebration, reflection, or quiet remembrance, we're thinking of you and holding you close. 💛

Did you know? Donations of $2 or more are tax deductible — making it easier to support those who need it most while giving back.

Over $10 million has been raised to help ease the financial burden for country NSW families facing cancer.

From fuel and accommodation to everyday essentials, this support allows patients to focus on what truly matters — their treatment and their loved ones.

Every contribution helps ensure country NSW cancer patients can access treatment 💛

Rural Australia gives so much — feeding communities, supporting families, and keeping the heart of our country strong. But when cancer impacts someone in these communities, distance, travel, and essential costs can quickly become overwhelming.

For many country Australians, accessing treatment means long drives, overnight stays, time away from work, and added financial pressure during an already difficult time. That’s where Can Assist steps in — helping ease the burden so patients can focus on what matters most.

If you’d like to help support country Australians facing cancer, please consider making a donation. Visit the link in our bio to contribute and make a meaningful difference today.
