Media students and campaign information

We get a lot of requests from students about our campaigns. Before contacting us, use this site to do your research. A good place to start is with a media release search.

Students can quote this website and attribute information to the appropriate program manager. To determine who the current program manager is, email enquiries@cancervic.org.au with the campaign in the subject field, to the attention of the PR or Marketing office. 

If you quote a Cancer Council spokesperson or use information from our website, please send us a final version of your assignment for our files.

If students want to organise an interview (in person or by phone) requests must be received 2 weeks in advance. An interview is not guaranteed and depends on staff availability.

To enquire about work experience, send a cover letter and CV to HR@cancervic.org.au
