This National Carers Week (11–17 October), we’re recognising the families who provide ongoing care for children and young people with disability, and the role Sony Foundation's Holiday Camps play in giving them a valuable weekend to rest and recharge.

Through Sony Foundation’s Holiday Camps, more than 1,000 high school and university students volunteer each year as full-time carers, creating opportunities for children to build friendships, try new things and make lasting memories, while their families enjoy a well-deserved break — at zero cost to them.

To the families who give so much every day, and the incredible volunteers who make our 20+ camps possible each year, thank you. We see you and appreciate the incredible difference you make.💙

We are deeply saddened to share that Remy Grogan, our 2026 River4Ward You Can Champion, passed away over the weekend, surrounded by her loving family.

From the moment we met Remy, we were immediately struck by her strength, resilience and independence, and the purpose and grace with which she lived her life.

A talented film student with a passion for directing, Remy faced a devastating cancer prognosis at just 18 years old with remarkable courage.

In May this year, Remy courageously and generously shared her story with guests at our River4Ward event, speaking about the challenges young people continue to face when accessing cancer treatment, particularly those from regional areas, and the importance of spaces that recognise the unique needs of young people and connect them with others facing similar journeys.

We are forever grateful to Remy for her advocacy and for sharing the positive impact Sony Foundation’s ‘You Can’ Youth Cancer Centre and the You Can Stay program had on her and her family. Through You Can Stay, Remy and her family were supported with more than 370 nights of accommodation, helping ensure she did not have to face her journey alone.

Through sharing her experience, Remy helped others better understand why these programs matter and the difference they can make in the lives of young people and their families.

Our deepest condolences are with Remy’s family and friends at this unimaginably difficult time.

Rest in peace, Remy. Forever a You Can Champion.
