Get to know Terry Moore, Our national Support Coordinator
April 14, 2026
Terry comes from a creative background and successfully ran her own business while raising her children. Throughout this time, she also maintained a strong and active support role within her community, particularly in school and sporting groups.
Her natural empathy and willingness to help others led her to regularly act as a health advocate and support person for family and friends—something she found deeply rewarding.
These experiences sparked a desire to pursue a more formal role in supporting others, Terry is passionate about providing reassurance, guidance, and a listening ear to individuals and families facing uncertainty. Her lived experience, combined with her caring nature, allows her to connect authentically with people and offer meaningful support.
She is especially interested in helping families feel less alone during challenging times and believes strongly in the importance of community, connection, and accessible information. Terry brings warmth, understanding, and dedication to her work, and is committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those she supports.
A Q&A with John:
What attracted you to join CTF? What do you hope to achieve here?
Over the years, I have regularly supported family and friends as an advocate. This is something I’ve always found fulfilling and have wanted to pursue more formally. Joining CTF allows me to continue this work in a meaningful way, in supporting others, understanding, and connection.
What do you wish people knew about NF?
That you are not alone. NF is different for every individual, and no two experiences are the same. CTF is a safe and supportive place where families can connect, share, and feel understood.
In your opinion, why does NF need more support?
There are not enough resources and support services available, particularly for those newly diagnosed. This lack of support can leave individuals and families feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, and stressed.
What role do you think the Children’s Tumour Foundation plays in supporting NF families?
CTF provides a “soft place to fall.” It connects families with others in similar situations, offers reassurance, and helps guide people through what can often feel like an overwhelming and confusing medical journey.
A message from Terry:
I want our community to know that we are here for them. Whether you simply need someone to listen and understand, or you’re looking for information about NF or guidance on navigating services like the NDIS, we are here to support you every step of the way.
