🌼 40 Years of Growing Hope

This year, we’re celebrating 40 years of Daffodil Day and the incredible progress made for people affected by cancer.

When Daffodil Day first took root in 1986, the 5-year cancer survival rate was around 46%. Today, thanks in part to the generosity of communities supporting cancer research, that figure has risen to 72%. 💛

That’s 40 years of research, hope and people coming together to improve cancer outcomes.

We’ve come a long way — but there is still more to do. We hope the next 40 years of cancer research brings us closer to a future where everyone diagnosed with cancer can survive their diagnosis and receive a treatment plan that’s right for them.

🌼 Together, we can keep growing hope.

🧠 Brain Injury: Many Pathways, One Community

This Brain Injury Awareness Week, we’re recognising the many pathways that can lead to brain injury — and the importance of a connected, understanding and supportive community.

Around 1 in 45 Australians are living with a brain injury, with almost 3 in 4 people affected being under 65. Brain injury can happen to anyone, at any stage of life, and may result from falls, car or cycling accidents, contact sports, stroke, illness, dementia, assault and family or domestic violence.

Sometimes, a brain injury isn’t immediately recognised or formally diagnosed — making awareness and understanding even more important.

Whether you’re living with brain injury, supporting a family member or friend, providing care, or working in health or community services, we all have a role to play.

Together, we can help create communities where people affected by brain injury feel connected, supported, included and empowered to live self-determined lives. 💙
