This CAN GIVE DAY will see four top cooks compete in the Master Cook Challenge, with three challenges to test their skill and grit!

On Friday 21st October, the cooks will be pushing their skills to the limit, embracing their passion and putting their reputation on the line... all to raise funds for 'Your Space - Wellbeing Centre' at the Canberra Region Cancer Centre. 

The wanna-be chefs will be competing in three challenges:

  • Signatory meal
  • Taste test
  • Mystery Box

WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT?

A day of giving... to give back to our community! CAN GIVE DAY contributes to our healthcare services in a way that makes such a huge difference to our patients.

It's a 24-hour fundraising sprint to help our amazing healthcare teams to deliver exceptional patient care for people in our community and the surrounding region. 

Funds raised go to support research, therapeutic programs, transformations of away-from-bed areas, and the purchase of speciality medical equipment, which enhances the patient experience.

You can get involved and support staff-led projects throughout the year by signing up to fundraise for Canberra Hospital Foundation!
