Waitlist now open for July 2026
Losing someone you love to cancer can feel isolating. Many people find comfort in connecting with others who truly understand what grief can be like. We are currently accepting expressions of interest for our next group, expected to commence in July 2026.
This group is free, national, run online, and facilitated by two Cancer Council qualified health care professionals. The group runs for six consecutive weekly sessions, with the same members attending each week to create a safe, supportive, and confidential space.
You may find this group helpful if:
You live in Australia (Australian resident) and are 18 years or older.
You have lost a family member or close friend to a cancer related illness.
Your bereavement occurred at least 3 months ago and within the past 2 years.
You can attend all six weekly sessions and have access to a phone, tablet or computer with internet access, and a quiet space for the one-hour calls.
The group is confidential and offers a safe space to share at your own pace.

If you would like to be considered for the July 2026 Life After Loss group, please call 1300 755 632 (Supportive Care) by 30 June 2026.
After you call, one of our facilitators will complete a brief registration conversation with you to ensure the group is the right fit and to add you to the waitlist. Because this is a closed group, places are limited and are offered as they become available.
