Lymphoma Association support groups are made up of individuals who are, or have been, affected by lymphoma in some way; whether patient, family member, friend or carer.
The aim of a group is to provide mutual support for members in a form most appropriate for the needs of those members, as determined by them. Group meetings will probably include a variety of medical and non-medical speakers and social events. Some groups also participate in fundraising and awareness-raising for the Lymphoma Association.
The group is an integral part of the Association and receives assistance from the helpline team, but is run by the members. Many groups are actively supported by a local health care professional; often a specialist nurse in oncology or haematology.
If you are interested in starting a support group in your area, please contact the helpline on 0808 808 5555 or email us through our enquiry form.
