About Us
Head and Neck Cancer Australia is the only national charity dedicated to supporting people affected by Head and Neck Cancer.
For many the impact on everyday life can be profound, for both the person diagnosed and those caring for them. People need somewhere to turn for trusted information, someone who understands what they are facing, and support as they adjust to life during and after treatment.
We provide free access to specialist nurses, counselling support and trusted information when patients and families need it most.
Launched in 2016, what began as a small charity has grown into a national organisation supporting over 5,600 Australians diagnosed each year and 18,000 living with its long term impacts.
Today, we work alongside patients, carers, healthcare professionals, researchers and policymakers to improve outcomes and ensure the voices of people affected by Head and Neck Cancer are heard.
Everything we do is driven by the voices of our community and the belief that together, we can create meaningful change.
