We fund research and provide support to improve blood cancer patients' lives

Story

When I was 15 years old I was diagnosed with lymphoma, which is a cancer of the white blood cells. My doctors and nurses treated me and got me better, and I have now been in remission since I was 16.

I went back to school to study hard for my A-levels and then went on to Durham University, and now I am researching for a PhD at the University of Cambridge, working on research into a childhood lymphoma which is sponsored by a Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research grant.

LLR funds research into blood cancers all over the UK, making significant advances into the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.

Please help me to raise money for this great charity, and help to improve the lives of patients with blood cancers :)
