Vale Cheri Ostroff With great sadness we acknowledge the passing of Professor Cheri Ostroff on the 31st of Jan 2025. Cheri was a powerful advocate and an award-winning researcher, and worked closely with Cancer Voices SA for many years. May her memory be a blessing.

We are proud to have talented and creative team members who are engaged with consumer representative work across the cancer sector. Our CVSA Exec member Thomas Binns directed and edited this music video for Canteen Australia starring YAPS the puppet! youtu.be/jX5On6u_0OA?...
