Who We Are...

Make Today Count is a mutual support organisation for those persons confronting a life-threatening illness so they may gain help in learning to live life in a positive, meaningful manner.

This organisation was founded because of the need to improve the quality of life for persons and their families who face serious illness, such as cancer, and to assist health care providers in caring for them.

Whilst not a religious organisation, we support the spiritual needs of the individual and their carers.

What We Do...

Make Today Count promotes openness and honesty in discussing and dealing with a serious illness.

Help the patient and his/her family cope with a life-threatening illness by sharing feelings and concerns. Many members know what it is like because they have been there themselves.

Support professionals in communicating with and meeting the needs of a patient and family members who are faced with a life-threatening illness.
