The Warwick Foundation
Description
The Warwick Foundation is Australia’s first and only charitable foundation supporting young adults aged 18-40 on their cancer journey.Our programs are based on the concept of well being and are about the whole person; not just the treatment of cancer.
Our work is underpinned by a social model of health where we believe in not just the absence of cancer but a return to wellness for young adults that takes into account their physical, social and mental well being.
We provide:
Age Specific Support, Referral and Information that talks about things such as fertility, career interruption, finances, sexuality and relationships.
Mates in My Shoes Peer Support Program linking young cancer fighters and survivors nationwide, reducing isolation and loneliness.
Wellness Escapes Providing luxury stays in countryside accommodation giving young adults respite and a chance to recover from treatment.
Get Spoilt! We love to spoil our members by bringing them together to do fun, life affirming activities that give them a reason to connect and smile.
We are here to support young Australians with cancer and ensure they are not alone.
