We are delighted to announce that voting is now officially open for the Yes to Life Awards 2026.

Following an overwhelming response to this year’s nominations, our judging panel has carefully reviewed submissions from across the integrative cancer care community and selected an outstanding group of finalists. These individuals, organisations and healthcare professionals represent the very best of innovation, compassion, dedication and service, all united by a shared commitment to improving the lives of people affected by cancer.

The Yes to Life Awards celebrate those who are helping to shape a more holistic, person-centred approach to cancer care. From pioneering clinicians and passionate advocates to community organisations and purpose-driven businesses, our finalists demonstrate the many ways in which positive change can happen when people come together to support health, wellbeing and informed choice.

This year, for the first time, the winners will be chosen through a combination of nominations and public voting, giving our community the opportunity to recognise the people and organisations whose work has inspired and impacted them most.
