Short Stays

What is the Short Stays Program

This is a chance for families to have a short break from the everyday challenges that cancer brings.

The purpose of the program is to provide a short break for families with an established respite need who may otherwise find it difficult, due to health, financial or time constraints, to have a break from the everyday challenges that cancer brings.

What is included

• Two-night hotel stay
• $400 Eftpos gift card ($500 for families of 4 or more)

Why participate?

We asked participants what the family found most helpful about the program:

1. Rest & relaxation
2. Quality fun time with the family
3. Took their mind off their cancer experience

Who is eligible?

We encourage you and your family to reach out to your Canteen key worker to find out more and discuss this opportunity.
