Lymphoma Awareness Month is here!

September Awareness Month

September has arrived and it's time to put lymphoma in the limelight and help fund a nurse!

  • 19 Australians are diagnosed every day
  • The number one cancer in young people
  • More than 80+ subtypes

Lymphoma is a common but complex lymphatic cancer. Signs and symptoms are often hard to diagnose, and there is currently no known cause.

September is our month of action to help raise awareness of lymphoma.

Our aim is to reduce the impact of this cancer in the community through awareness, education, advocacy, support and research; to ensure that all patients and families are supported and have access to lymphoma care nurses.

This September, we're raising both awareness and funds. By setting up a fundraising page - or making a donation - you are helping to ensure that no one faces lymphoma alone.

World CLL Day

1 SEPTEMBER IS WORLD CLL DAY

Every 1 September, Lymphoma Australia joins with the global CLL community to raise awareness about chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and give those affected by a diagnosis of CLL a much needed voice. On World CLL Day we come together to improve understanding of the vulnerability of CLL and SLL patients and the challenges involved in living with CLL / SLL.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow. It is the most common leukaemia in adults. CLL cannot normally be cured, but treatment can help control the condition.
Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) is where most of the lymphoma cells are in the lymph nodes and lymphatic system. Because CLL and SLL are so similar the tests, management and treatment for them are the same.

We have two CLL events happening today - see the links below.
