Rare Cancers Australia

Rare Cancers Australia (RCA) is a leading for-impact charity that works to improve the lives and health outcomes of Australian patients, carers and families affected by a rare or less common cancer diagnosis.

 

We do this through: 

 

Patient support – we provide personalised practical, emotional and financial assistance to the rare cancer patients, carers and families of today.  

 

We help patients access specialists, treatments and research opportunities. We also deliver support groups, connect people with services and assist with fundraising. 

 

Advocacy – we drive meaningful change for the rare cancer patients, carers and families of today and tomorrow. 

 

We help rare cancer patients gain access to the treatments they need, and develop strong partnerships and work to influence policy in order to increase survivorship rates and patient participation in decision-making at all levels.
