Cancer Council ACT Information

Cancer Council ACT is dedicated to working towards a cancer free future. Every minute, every hour of every day, we are working to find better ways of preventing and treating cancer, and supporting people with cancer and those who love them. We need your support now more than ever. This year alone 138,321 new cancer cases will be diagnosed in Australia. By 2040, the number of Australians living with or beyond cancer will grow by 72%. But despite the growing incidence of cancer, there is still massive hope for a cancer free future, thanks to research supported by the generosity of our local community. Cancer Council ACT works in 5 important areas: • Support and information • Prevention • Advocacy • Working in the Community • Research
