Cancer Australia is proud to have won the IPAA ACT 2026 Spirit of Service Award Breakthrough category for the successful design and implementation of Australia’s first National Lung Cancer Screening Program which launched on 1 July 2025.

This win reflects the extraordinary work, commitment and collaboration of many people across Cancer Australia, the Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing, and NACCHO.

Prof Vivienne Milch and Katrina Anderson attended the ceremony in Canberra to accept the award on behalf of Cancer Australia.

Thank you to everyone who helped design, establish and deliver this important program. Congratulations to all involved!
