“When you find organisations who are so willing to help you, you can concentrate on your treatment rather than the accommodation or transport. Having people at Ellis Lodge was an absolute blessing in so many ways, it took a lot of our stresses away straight away knowing there were people that could help us.” Carl and Linda Rattray
“We have always recognised how important it is for our programs, services and advice to be based on the best available scientific evidence”. Professor Joanne Aitken – General Manager, Research, CCQ.
“I really enjoy fundraising, meeting people, and giving back to the community”. Jim McMurdo – CCQ’s longest serving volunteer of 45 years.
