Newly Diagnosed Programme

This four week programme is open to anyone who has recently received a diagnosis of lymphoma, of any type, including CLL. Meetings are held on Mondays at 2pm, and the programme starts at the beginning of the month.

At these four support and information meetings, you'll meet others who have been diagnosed in the last few weeks and are in the early stages of coming to terms with finding out they have lymphoma and what it means for them.

Each meeting is structured around a different issue, with information and support from the facilitators, as well as time to share your experience with other participants.

At the end of the programme, you'll have the opportunity to join one of our regular monthly support meetings, according to your type of lymphoma and treatment.

'Newly diagnosed' means you have had a confirmed diagnosis of any type of lymphoma within the six weeks prior to registration.
Registration is for all four weeks of the programme and participants should be available to attend every meeting. It is not possible to join a programme part way through, but you can register for the next one.
To ensure all participants have the opportunity to share their experience and feelings, we limit the number on each programme to ten.
Partners, family members and close friends of someone with a diagnosis (collectively known as 'carers') are not eligible for the programme but are welcome to join one of our Family, friends and carers online support meetings.

If you would like more information or to discuss whether the newly diagnosed programme is the right option for you, please email services.managers@lymphoma-action.org.uk.

Our support meetings provide a safe, confidential place where people affected by lymphoma can talk to each other about their experience, express their thoughts and feelings, gain insight from connecting with others, and get support and information. The facilitators will listen, seek to understand your experience and help address any questions or worries you might have.

Meetings last an hour and are hosted on Zoom. You don't need a Zoom account or experience of using Zoom but you will need access to an internet-enabled device with a working microphone, speaker and webcam to take part.

To register for any of our support meeting, you must be aged 18 or over, resident in the UK and personally affected by lymphoma.
