Leukaemia Care
We exist to improve the lives of everyone affected by leukaemia, MDS and MPN. For over 50 years, we have been dedicated to ensuring that everyone affected receives the best possible diagnosis, information, advice, treatment and support.
We are here for everyone affected by leukaemia and related blood cancer types – such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). We believe in improving lives and being a force for change.
We provide information, advice and support for anyone affected, this includes patients and their friends and families too. We raise awareness of the issues impacting people affected by leukaemia, MDS and MPN, and campaign to fix them. We are driving early diagnosis, raising public awareness, improving services, and ensuring access to effective treatments.
We are joining ZSA as we want to encourage suicide awareness amongst our volunteers who would closely with patients with serious illness. Their position supporting potentially vulnerable adults means they are well placed to notice signs that a person might be feeling depressed or considering suicide. It is important that we educate our volunteers on suicide awareness.
