Ballarat Regional Integrated Cancer Centre (BRICC)

Ballarat Regional Integrated Cancer Centre (BRICC) is the largest public provider of cancer treatment services in Western Victoria.

We are a world-class centre providing cancer care and research for patients in Western Victoria. In addition to providing exceptional public cancer care, we are proud of our clinical trials, providing novel cancer treatments to regional patients – many of whom have exhausted all other treatment options. We have 100 clinical trials, from phase I through to phase IV and follow-up studies currently underway in Oncology and Haematology and host a number of other oncology research projects. But our care for cancer patients extends beyond treatment, by providing a holistic approach to patient and family care.

Dry July is a major supporter of our Cancer Wellness Centre. The centre is designed as a welcoming retreat for patients and families. It is a place to rest and be supported, distinct from the more clinical hospital treatment rooms. We also provide a wide range of free support and educational programs to help people with cancer take an active role in their health and well-being. Dry July also helps us purchase items for patient care and comfort, most recently, treatment chairs in our Chemotherapy Day Unit.

We are completely reliant upon community fundraising to continue to provide these free services.

Please help us to continue to provide world-class cancer care to our community by fundraising for our Cancer Centre this Dry July.
