Our UK-wide Facebook Group connects and supports people affected by lymphoma from all over the country. The closed group ensures privacy as only people within the group can see posts and comments. It brings together people living with lymphoma, recovering from lymphoma, family members and friends, with a mix of information, support and a sprinkling of fun! 

On Friday we celebrated reaching 3,000 members. We owe a big thank you to our eight indispensable moderators that have made this possible. Not only do they keep it a safe place, they are also incredibly responsive and always on hand to quickly share links and information. 

“Members feel comfortable sharing their thoughts, feelings and emotions. They feel less isolated with their lymphoma knowing there are others who understand and share similar experiences” says Karen Bonell, group administrator and Services Manager at Lymphoma Action.

Here is what some of our members think about the group.

Somewhere you feel at home. Extended family who understands us, I appreciate the kind words, love and support.

This is my safe space, where nothing is off limits and I feel no need to edit how I present my true self.
