The Coronavirus has led to an unprecedented demand for this service and they need our help to continue to serve the lymphoma community... my brother was only 23 when he was diagnosed with this horrible disease - the fifth most common cancer.
Lymphoma Action is the only UK charity dedicated to lymphoma & raising as little as £10 helps to send out information booklets to newly diagnosed patients.
This month I am taking part in the Lymphoma Action Lockdown 100 challenge and i would be so grateful for any donations no matter how small.
Lymphoma is a type of blood cancer that develops when white blood cells called lymphocytes grow out of control. Lymphocytes are part of your immune system. They travel around your body in your lymphatic system, helping you fight infections. Your lymphatic system runs through your body, similar to your blood circulatory system, carrying a fluid called lymph, the fluid passes through lymph nodes (glands) which are spread throughout the body.
Before my brother was diagnosed I had no idea what this cancer was, thankfully my brother is now cancer free... I am taking part in this challenge to raise awareness and hopefully raise a small amount along the way.
