Golf2Cure 2025

Our 2025 charity golf day, Golf2Cure, will take place on Thursday, June 26 at the prestigious Lakes Golf Club at Eastlakes, Sydney. The aim of the day is to have fun, increase awareness of neuroblastoma, and to raise funds for research into this devastating childhood cancer so we can find treatments that are more effective and less toxic.
Key Statistics

Know key statistics about the childhood cancer, neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is the most common solid tumour of childhood and its treatment. Most neuroblastomas, made up of cells found in nerve tissues of the body, start in the adrenal glands.
