Kyle Andrews Foundation – Family Support

Kyle Andrews’ legacy lives on…

The Camp

Our organisation is a registered charitable foundation raising funds to bring children undergoing treatment for cancer from Perth Children’s Hospital to Broome on an annual basis, for a much-needed, week long, break from difficult treatments and therapy. 

“The camp is phenomenal. The children start to smile again, laugh, and have a bit of fun. By the end of the week, we have a completely different child with us. They are relaxed, less stressed, feel free and have a sense of belonging,” said Matt, the Foundation President.

Family Respite Home – Kyle’s Cottage, Broome

We have a fully self-contained respite home in Broome for families with children who may have life threatening illnesses and are undergoing treatment. Families can stay in Broome to enjoy much needed respite and to take a holiday together in such a beautiful part of Australia.  We want families that need a break to be able to take a holiday together. 

Family Apartment for Perth Treatment – Gibb Retreat 

We have a comfortable, well located apartment in West Perth to provide accommodation for those from the North West while undergoing medical treatment in Perth.

Kyle’s Getaway – Busselton

 Kyle’s Getaway offers respite accommodation at a beachfront location in Busselton for eligible families.
This facility will broaden the holiday respite opportunities during the wet season period (Nov-March) in
Broome when conditions are extreme in the North but perfect in southern locations.
The facility is currently being developed in stages on a beach front lot, with 2 Cottages opening in December 2025 and a 3rd in planning with anticipated opening late April/early May 2026
We understand that going on a holiday when having a child going through treatment and therapy for a life-threatening illness can be financially difficult. It is also difficult when families have recently experienced the bereavement of losing a child. 

Respite for families and Carers is so important for the health of everyone.

This accommodation is also available to nursing staff working the Oncology Ward at the Perth Children’s Hospital for minimal cost.

We want all families to be able to have the option to go on a holiday, escape the day-to-day stress, to have a break and recuperate. 

The property has a number of accommodation options completed and we welcome your booking request.

Our Patron – Justin Langer

Our wonderfully supportive Patron is Justin Langer who, along with his family, has been able to attend most Kyle Camps and represents the Kyle Andrews Foundation Inc. at a number of functions. 

Justin spent valuable time with Kyle whilst he was in hospital and always took the time, even whilst overseas in his capacity as a player with the Australian Cricket Team, to call Kyle and check in on him.

It has been wonderful to have Justin, his wife Sue and their four daughters as part of the KAF family. They love Broome as much as Kyle did.
