Introducing ALK Positive Australia Inc. An interview with Deputy Chairperson, Graham Hall

Can you share with our readers the founding story of the ALK Positive Australia? What inspired the establishment of the organisation.

I, like many others, including the other founders, felt at initial diagnosis that it was difficult to find local, relevant information about ALK+ Lung Cancer and I was dubious of heading to Facebook for answers. Australia unfortunately does not have a dedicated Lung Cancer body despite Lung Cancer remaining the cancer with the highest mortality rate of all cancers in the country. Instead, we have Cancer Australia, Lung Foundation Australia, Cancer Council Australia and Rare Cancers Australia.
