Financial Assistance
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.
Accommodation Assistance
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 Supporters
Our Branch would not exist without our members, volunteers and community supporters. We thank them for their contribution.

Hi Everyone, I’ve completed 450km cycling over the month of August for the ‘Can Do The Challenge’ for Can Assist, helping cancer patients and their families across rural NSW. The cycling was in memory of my father Laurie who also worked for Essential Energy, who passed away from cancer last year.
We’ve almost raised $1k, with donations closing Thursday 14th, any donations you can make would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all the legends who have already donated. 👍
