Our Vision

Our vision is that any one affected by cancer can receive the support they need - support that is relevant, accessible and within their cultural context and that spans every stage of the cancer journey, from prevention and detection to treatment, survivorship, and end-of-life care.

We see Sanadi as a dynamic ecosystem of support for Arabic speaking background people - guiding them through the healthcare labyrinth, forging connections within a supportive network, and amplifying awareness of existing services.

We also see Sanadi taking on a pivotal role in influencing policy decisions and shaping the landscape of care for Arabic-speaking communities.

We aspire to reshape research priorities, service designs and delivery to ensure optimal support for the community and minimise the burden of cancer's impact.

In naming the foundation Sanadi, we aim to convey the true meaning of the word which literally translates in Arabic to “my support”, or “someone I know I can lean on.” We look forward to sharing the stories of the foundation’s achievements in the coming years.
