Supporting People with Cancer (SPWC) is an annual grant program that funds projects aimed at reducing the impact of cancer and providing better support for people affected by cancer.

The aim of the opportunity is to improve the outcomes and experiences for all Australians affected by cancer, particularly for those groups whose health outcomes are poorest, in alignment with the Plan.

    • supporting improvements in outcomes for people whose cancer outcomes are inequitable, for example, people impacted by rare or less common cancers or cancers with poorer outcomes
  • Have national applicability and can be able to be applied locally
