Together in Dry July 2026, you helped Cancer Wellness Support raise an incredible $61,583, which will help expand access to affordable, person-centred cancer care across the Blue Mountains, Penrith and Hawkesbury region.
The funds will support the expansion of the Wellness Centre, including specialised equipment and greater access to subsidised therapies such as oncology massage, lymphoedema management, acupuncture, counselling, yoga, meditation and peer support.
This will help more people affected by cancer, as well as their carers and loved ones, access the support they need.
"We feel incredibly fortunate to have such a generous community behind us. This was our fourth Dry July, and each year we have seen the excitement, generosity and commitment grow across our organisation, our fundraisers and the partners and supporters who contribute to its success.
Together, you helped us reach our $60,000 fundraising target this year. These funds will help us expand access to specialist lymphoedema management, strengthen support for carers, and provide more subsidised therapies as demand continues to grow.
Most importantly, this support helps us keep cancer care affordable and accessible for local people living with cancer, their carers and families, ensuring they can access the support they need throughout their cancer experience."
