New App to help Cancer Sufferers

Cancer affects us all – 1 in 22 Australians* have or have had cancer. This means that for the majority of Australians, we have all experienced or witnessed the challenges those with cancer have to overcome. In many cases, many of us have felt like we could be doing more to help, but don’t know how to go about it.

Following her own experience with aggressive breast cancer, Rachael Lonergan, was inspired to create CanDo. A new App which enables cancer patients to easily ask their network for help on day-to-day tasks, while removing the awkwardness of face-to-face conversations.

Set to change the way cancer sufferers receive support from their networks, the app allows patients to easily ask for the help they need – from bedsheets being changed and school runs to tax returns and so much more. Their social network can then volunteer to do the tasks they would like to and the backend of the App makes sure nothing falls through the cracks.

If you have Cancer or have a friend or family member currently suffering from it, take a look at the CanDo app today and see if it can help make the journey a little easier.
