Practical, Empowering and Comforting

A cancer diagnosis is hard to navigate for not just the patient but for all around them.

We are here to help you with the perfect giftbox of goodies that have been carefully selected to help with the many side effects of treatment and help give your loved one a big hug when you can't be by their side.

What is in the box?

Our Mission

Founded in January 2018, The Big Hug Box is a registered not for profit charity based in Newcastle. Our mission is to help ease the uncertainty and emotions that the patient and those around them feel when they hear the word cancer, a word too many Australians are hearing each and everyday.

With all profits from sales donated to Cure Cancer Australia we are helping patients now through our gift boxes and help patients diagnosed in the future, through funding our youngest and brightest cancer researchers in finding a cure.

I received my Big Hug Box a couple of days ago and can't stop looking at this beautiful collection of soothing things. I'm half way through my chemo treatment and haven't been able to work since my diagnosis last November.

Thank you for this absolutely beautiful idea.  There are so many little treasures in this box and it is packaged so beautifully. Thank you for providing a special gift full of the things that I didn't know my aunt desperately needed.

Well, today was made that much better, receiving a random hug of kindness. Thank you so very, very much. It has been a week, of being blown away by the genuine caring and compassion from others
