You can help provide essential services for the 20 Australians diagnosed with lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) each day.
Last year, Lymphoma Australia reached more patients than ever before, perhaps even someone you know and love. Lymphoma and CLL are devastating cancers, impacting over 7,400 Australians annually – that’s a new diagnosis every 2 hours. Lymphoma is the 6th most common cancer in Australia, the top cancer in young people aged 16-29, and the third most common in children. It claims more lives each year than skin cancer.
Given these alarming statistics, the need for support is more urgent than ever.
Sometimes it is the small things that can make a real difference. Like our Patient Treatment Packs that are posted out to every new patient referred to us and tailored to each individual and their subtype.
With over 80 different subtypes of lymphoma, newly diagnosed patients often struggle to find accurate and relevant information about their specific condition. That’s why Lymphoma Australia is committed to providing free, easy-to-understand resources on our website.
Our team of educated and qualified nurses, with backgrounds in health, nursing, oncology, and hematology, are dedicated to assisting patients, families, and carers. They help navigate the healthcare system, provide the most current information, and, most importantly, alleviate the fear and uncertainty of the lymphoma journey.
Please give today to help raise $10,000 before June 30 so that we can continue providing these essential patient support services.
