Cancer Council Victoria

Cancer Council Victoria is a cancer charity committed to preventing cancer, empowering people and saving lives. Prevent Cancer. Empower Patients. Save Lives.

Every year, more than 30,500 Victorians will be diagnosed with cancer, and nearly 11,000 will die from cancer. The number of cases will increase as our population grows and ages. Survival will also improve as we get better at early detection and treatment of cancer. Since our establishment in 1936, Cancer Council Victoria has developed an international reputation for our innovative work in cancer research, prevention and support. As an independent, not-for-profit organisation, we play a leading role in reducing the impact of all cancers on all people.

This year marks 40 years of Quit and 40 years of impactful change ✨

In 1985, smoking was far more accepted than it is now. Today, daily smoking rates are less than a third of what they were back then.

From smoke-free venues to world-first plain packaging, Quit has helped drive lasting change. But the job’s not done. Smoking remains a leading cause of preventable cancer, and vaping presents a new challenge.

Whether you’re quitting, helping a mate, or pushing for change, Quitline is here for you. Call 📞 13 7848 or visit quit.org.au

Amongst the hundreds of eager participants expected at Casey Fields is Rhonda – who has been a fixture of Relay for Life for more than 20 years.

Rhonda started her Relay journey more than 10 years ago after being diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of breast cancer in 2002, enduring seven months of intense chemotherapy.

“Being a survivor gave me the determination to fight back, to do the best I can, to help others, and pay back. I don’t think I’ll ever stop, because it means so much to me. I just want to raise money for research and hope that we can help others.” – Rhonda.

Throughout the years, Rhonda has been recognised for her generous fundraising efforts and dedication to Relay for Life – and this year, she’s excited to be cutting the ribbon to officially begin the festivities!

Relay For Life is returning to Casey Fields and Michael is one of the hundreds of participants gearing up to help make strides towards a cancer-free future.

An avid long-distance runner, Michael and his family have been fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria for almost 15 years. But recently, Michael’s involvement has taken on an extra level of significance after his own experience with prostate cancer.

Following surgery, and now cancer-free, Michael is passionate about spreading the word around awareness and routine testing, as he continues his family’s growing Relay for Life tradition.

“Relay is a big part of my year and my life. For my family and I, it’s about fighting cancer and setting ourselves a challenge. Sure, you may be uncomfortable for a night but that’s part of the challenge and what makes it rewarding - and it’s nothing when you consider what people living with cancer have to go through and why we’re doing it. That’s why we’re so proud to fundraise every year.” – Michael.

Proudly supported by the City of Casey, the annual event at Casey Fields runs overnight, from 6pm Saturday 25 October to 12pm Sunday 26 October at Casey Fields Regional Athletics Centre.

🫁 It’s good to know: Lung cancer screening is free and could save your life!

We’ve partnered with NACCHO Aboriginal Health Australia, ACON, The Australian Multicultural Health Collaborative, Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia to launch a new campaign, supported by the Australian Government, to raise awareness of the National Lung Cancer Screening Program.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in Australia, but with lung screening we can change this. If found early, over 65% of lung cancers can be successfully treated.

If you're aged 50 to 70 and have a history of smoking, talk to your doctor or healthcare provider about lung screening.

"Back in 2008, I hosted my very first Girls' Night In to support Cancer Council. I did it in honour of my amazing mum who was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004, then again in 2023.

Just over 10 years ago, I found out I carry the BRCA-2 gene, just like my mum. That’s why every October I wear pink every day to raise awareness and spark conversations about women’s cancer.

As a teacher, I’ve had the joy of seeing students and colleagues join in, as well as my supporters who show up year after year.

We’ve now raised more than $20,000 for live-saving research, treatment, prevention and support services.💗"
