Cancer survivors denied funding for facial prosthetics while others get support

Head and Neck Cancer Australia wants $25.13 million over four years to pay for facial prosthetics. Other Australians can get help paying for breast or limb prosthetics, but not facial ones.

Why it mattersCancer survivors often live with permanent facial scarring but can't afford to fix it. Facial prosthetics could help them get back to work, see friends, and live normal lives.
