The Prince of Wales Hospital used funding from Dry July 2015 to purchase new chemotherapy treatment chairs. The state-of-the-art chairs will include TV screens so that patients can watch programs while having treatment; some patients need to sit in these chairs for up to 6 hours at a time.

About Us
Supporting survivors beyond treatment
Cancer treatment may end, but the challenges often don’t. Many survivors continue to face fatigue, appetite changes, digestive issues and other long term side effects that make daily life difficult. These nutrition related complications can slow recovery and impact both physical and emotional wellbeing.
This is why specialist dietitian care is essential. General nutrition advice isn’t enough- survivors need personalised, evidence based guidance that considers their specific treatment history and long term health risks.
Thanks to advances in cancer care, more Australians are living beyond their diagnosis. But for those rebuilding their health, tailored nutrition support can be life changing.
Our Cancer Survivorship Dietitian Support Program ensures survivors receive the specialised care they deserve as they navigate life after treatment
Go Dry in July or donate today and help survivors thrive beyond cancer.
