Sally Hicks was preparing for a long-awaited overseas trip when she heard the words no one is ever ready for: “you have cancer.”

That was 11 years ago.

What followed is not just her story, it’s a powerful reflection of how far cancer care has come, and what’s now possible because of research.

Join us on Wednesday, 3 June for a powerful morning that brings together lived experience, medical expertise and the latest in cancer research.

On the morning:

  • A powerful lived experience story from Sally Hicks
  • Insights into current and emerging cancer treatments with Professor Sonja Klebe
  • Optional head and neck cancer screening checks with a Flinders ENT Nurse Practitioner, Tracey Nicholls
