Leeton BRANCH
Murrumbidgee Region
Can Assist Leeton was formed in 1982. Our branch is an enthusiastic and sociable team of volunteers who are always looking for new members. We support our community wholeheartedly and are supported by our community wholeheartedly. We raise funds to provide financial assistance to people in our local community who are undergoing cancer treatment.
Areas Serviced: Barellan, Brobenah, Calorafield, Corbie Hill, Gogeldrie, Leeton, Merungle Hill, Murrami, Stanbridge, Wamoon, Whitton
We understand that families struggle to cope with a reduced income as a result of a cancer diagnosis and that they face increased expenses from travel, accommodation and medical costs.
Lilier Lodge provides accommodation for people undergoing cancer treatment at nearby facilities including the Riverina Cancer Care Centre, Wagga Wagga Base Hospital and Calvary Hospital.
Purpose built by Can Assist and the Cancer Council NSW, with the support of local and regional communities, it is managed by Can Assist. The 21 bed lodge is a warm and supportive home away from home.
Our Branch would not exist without our members, volunteers and community supporters. We thank them for their contribution.

Looks like lots of fun. Great to look after your volunteers with some down time where no ‘work’ is involved. Well done
