Read our HANCA February Newsletter

'Hello and welcome to our first newsletter for 2026. This year holds special meaning for us, marking ten years since Head and Neck Cancer Australia was founded on a simple but powerful idea: that people affected by Head and Neck Cancer needed tailored information and support, and a unified voice for change. 

Since establishing Australia’s first national charity dedicated solely to Head and Neck Cancer, we’ve developed a comprehensive library of trusted education resources, advocated to government for dedicated funding and support to improve patient outcomes, and launched Australia’s first specialist Head and Neck Cancer Helpline. These efforts mean more people can access trusted information and support, at times when it matters most. 

And at the heart of every activity and achievement is Your Voice - the insights, strength and lived experiences of patients, carers, families and clinicians that drive our mission forward. 

In 2026, we’re turning up the volume on Your Voice. Because when patients, carers and clinicians speak up, real change happens.'
