Daffodil Day Fundraiser helps build Cancer Information Centre

The Cancer Council’s Daffodil Day Ball will help raise funds for a new Cancer Information Centre to be housed at Wollongong Hospital’s Cancer Care Centre.

Wendy Collis, Nursing Co-Director, Critical Care and Cancer Services SESIAHS Southern Hospitals Network said the Information Centre will be an important local health care resource.

“The Information Centre will help connect cancer patients, their families and friends to cancer information and support services in the Illawarra.” Ms Collis said.

“The Centre will offer interactive displays such as direct access to the Cancer Council’s website, a small library with books, brochures and DVDs and a time out waiting room.”

The Daffodil Day Ball will be held on Saturday 22 August at TIGS Illawarra Grammar Centre.
