On 18 May 2024 I had the pleasure of attending Australia's Biggest Morning Tea, thoughtfully organised by Sinilia Radivojevic and Cancer Council NSW at Cabra‑Vale Diggers Club. It was heartening to see the community come together for such a crucial cause. Tragically, statistics reveal that about one in two Australian men and women will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. It is imperative that we continue to prioritise research, early detection and accessible treatment options to improve outcomes for individuals affected by cancer. Events like Australia's Biggest Morning Tea serve to promote public awareness and as vital fundraising opportunities, enabling Cancer Council NSW to continue its relentless efforts towards a future free of cancer. I commend Sinilia Radivojevic, Cancer Council NSW and all the attendees for their dedication and commitment to that important cause. Together we can make a tangible difference in the fight against cancer and bring hope to countless individuals and families affected by the disease.
