CanRevive Lunar New Year Party 2025

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Speaker, I rise to thank the team from CanRevive, who recently hosted their Lunar New Year Party 2025. I must say, it was such an enjoyable event. It was fantastic to join with some of my Parliamentary colleagues, as well as many friends who I haven't seen in a long time, to bring in the Year of the Snake. We enjoyed some fantastic food, as well as some great cultural performances, including singing and dancing, from some of the CanRevive voluntary instructors. CanRevive is a local support group that provides a safe and compassionate space for cancer patients. It offers individuals the opportunity to share their joys and struggles, while connecting with others who are in similar situations. Cancer impacts millions every year, including many in our community however thanks to the support of organisations like CanRevive, support networks do exist and can be incredibly useful to those going through this terrible disease. I would like to thank President Eric Yeung for his work in this space over the last few years. I look forward to working alongside CanRevive into the future.
