September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month and Lymphoma Action is inviting everyone to join the conversation to raise awareness about the UK’s most common type of blood cancer – lymphoma.
There are lots of ways that people can get involved in our Let’s talk lymphoma campaign, including: sharing our information resources with friends, family and colleagues to start the conversation around lymphoma and the symptoms of the condition; taking a Lymphoma Action resource pack to your GP surgery or pharmacy so they can display our materials; or raising funds to support our work.

We are also encouraging people to use the power of social media to raise awareness and send messages of support around the globe on World Lymphoma Awareness Day on Sunday 15 September.
We are asking people to share their experiences on social media to help us reach as many people as possible, not only to raise awareness about the symptoms of lymphoma, but to let them know about the support that is available for people affected by the condition.
Living with lymphoma can be hard and we know that many people experience emotional challenges as a result of a diagnosis, whether they are being treated for lymphoma themselves or are supporting a loved one. Sharing how you’re feeling is important, which is why we are also encouraging people to talk about their experiences, to help them address the emotional impact of a lymphoma diagnosis and connect them to specialists and resources that can help.
Every 26 minutes a friend or loved one is diagnosed with lymphoma. Help us shine a light on the UK’s fifth most common cancer so we can support even more people affected by the condition.
