Shine a Light Walk Sydney 2026

I will walk with my lantern because...

Did you know lung cancer is Australia’s biggest cancer killer?
Research offers hope and your support helps keep hope alive for the 15,122 new Australians living with lung cancer. Together, we can help shine a light on lung cancer and fund groundbreaking research.
Every year, the Shine a Light campaign raises funds to brighten the future for Australians living with lung cancer. With your support, Lung Foundation Australia provides seed funding for the best and brightest researchers to undertake projects that support discoveries towards the prevention, management and cure of lung cancer. Scientific breakthroughs can take years to accomplish but every dollar makes a difference to the lives of people impacted by lung cancer. Alongside research, practical support is just as critical, so we empower people living with lung cancer to make informed choices about treatment and management, through Lung Foundation Australia's Lung Cancer Support Nurse service.
Where there is light, there is hope. Every dollar builds a brighter future for Australians diagnosed with lung cancer.
Join me in fundraising, donate or join a community walk today. You will make a difference.

Shine a Light on Lung Cancer - every story matters!

Saturday 10th Oct

Lung cancer is more than a diagnosis. Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a community navigating uncertainty, courage, and hope.

Shining a light on lung cancer in our community matters because visibility creates understanding, and understanding inspires action. By sharing stories, raising awareness, and creating opportunities for open conversations, we can challenge stigma, break down misconceptions, and remind people that lung cancer can affect anyone, regardless of their background or lifestyle.

When we bring lung cancer into the spotlight, we help people recognise the importance of listening to their bodies, seeking medical advice when something doesn’t feel right, and supporting those impacted by the disease. We also amplify the voices of patients, carers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and advocates who are working tirelessly to improve outcomes and transform the future of lung cancer care.

But awareness alone is not enough. We need compassion, collective action, and a commitment to ensuring that every person affected by lung cancer feels seen, heard, and supported.

Every conversation can spark change. Every story can inspire hope. Every action, no matter how small, can make a difference.

Together, let’s shine a brighter light on lung cancer—not just to raise awareness, but to build a more informed, compassionate, and supportive community where no one has to face this journey alone.
