Why should I move for ACRF this February?
Cancer is a disease like no other. It’s a millennia-old problem that needs ingenious, out-of-the-box solutions. Luckily, the field of cancer research is populated with the brightest minds, ready to break new grounds. And ACRF has the ability to identify and back the most brilliant ideas — the ones that can take us closer to ending cancer, once and for all. Because behind every success story is brilliant research.
Ashleigh's story
My name is Ashleigh Mills and I’ve been a supporter of Australian Cancer Research Foundation, and a proud member of its community, since 2015.
2015 was a big year for me - it was the year that I got admitted as a lawyer of the Supreme Court of NSW, started my first full time job in the city and moved out of my family home and in with friends. It was also the year that I got diagnosed with cancer.
The months and years that followed that diagnosis were full of challenges, and a lot of life lessons. But throughout it all, one thing that became increasingly clear to me was the importance of science-backed research in answering the questions posed time and time again by cancer.
