Funds raised this Dry July will help fund free workshops to help with managing the most common physical and psychological impacts of treatment
About Us
Look Good Feel Better is a national cancer-support program run by The Cancer Patients Foundation: a not-for-profit organisation unaffiliated with any other cancer charity. We offer free in-person and online workshops and Confidence Kits to help people with any type of cancer manage the most common physical and psychological impacts of treatment. In providing practical tips and tools we help connect a community of people living a shared experience; empowering people to regain control, confidence, and a sense of self.
Run by volunteer experts, our Look Good Feel Better workshops are non-medical and brand-neutral, covering topics from skincare, cosmetics, and headwear options, through to grooming, fitness, mobility, and mental wellbeing. Our Confidence Kits contain a range of skincare and cosmetic products, in addition to practical written and video guides.
Look Good Feel Better receives no government funding and relies on the generosity of corporate and community sponsors. Since 1990, we’ve supported over 190,000 Australian women, men, and young adults through their cancer diagnosis. We’re very proud of the positive impact generated by our program, with over 98% of participants satisfied and willing to recommend Look Good Feel Better to others.

25 Additional Workshops Across Australia |
The Dry July Foundation was pleased to award a grant to the Cancer Patients Foundation and Look Good Feel Better in 2015.
The funds are being used to offer 5 additional Look Good Feel Better Workshops in NSW, QLD, SA, VIC and WA, particularly in regional areas.
Past workshop participants have said of the program:
“As I face the imminent loss of my hair, for most of my life worn long and, so, such a visible and intrinsic part of my femininity, I now feel I can literally ‘put on my happy face’ for the world. So armed, rather than be an object of pity (no hair, cancer victim, poor thing, so sad) with my new make-up, stylish wig and other glamorous head accessories, I can instead visually and powerfully proclaim my warrior stance in my battle against this most insidious disease.”
Catherine, LGFB participant
“I went with trepidation but my doctor said ‘it would be right mate’ and it was… It is sometimes hard for us chaps to speak about our personal needs but you made it practical and common sense.”
Jeremy, LGFB participant
