Herbert River RSL Rallies For Prostate Cancer Awareness

The Herbert River RSL is turning blue this August in support of men’s health, launching a fundraising campaign to back the It’s a Bloke’s Thing Foundation. The initiative runs through to Father’s Day on Sunday, 7 September, with funds raised helping to increase awareness and provide vital support for those affected by prostate cancer.

All proceeds from the RSL’s popular Friday night raffles, as well as special Father’s Day raffles, will be donated directly to the cause. Patrons are also being encouraged to wear blue when visiting the club throughout August as a visible show of support for the campaign.

Committee members say the event is about more than just raising funds. It is about bringing the community together, honouring fathers and families, and sparking conversations about an issue that affects so many Australian men. Prostate cancer remains one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the country, and community-driven efforts such as this play a critical role in funding research and support services.

Locals can get involved by attending the raffles, donating online, or simply spreading the word. With the added spirit of Father’s Day celebrations at the RSL, the initiative offers both a chance to come together and an opportunity to make a real difference.
