2024 marked the 20th Anniversary since the opening of Bradley's Place. Since 2004, Bradley's Place, near Victor Harbor, has welcomed hundreds of families, supported by the Childhood Cancer Association, needing respite accommodation.
We are so grateful to The Lott, by SA Lotteries, for their ongoing partnership, and for doubling their impact in with an incredible $100,000 to support children with cancer, and their families.
Whether you were in the room or not, it was almost impossible not to be swept up in the Winter Wonderland magic of the much-anticipated 4th Gold Ribbon Gala, which raised vital funds for the most important people of all: children with cancer, and their families.
When a trip to the GP ends up with tests at the Women's and Children's Hospital, followed by a cancer diagnosis. A family is often in shock and without the necessities for an unexpected hospital stay. That's where the Childhood Cancer Association can help, from the very beginning, by gifting a Hospital Support Pack.
Thanks to medical research, the overall survival rate for childhood cancer has now risen to more than 80%. However, while most children will now survive a cancer diagnosis, a number of longer term impacts are becoming more apparent.
