Denise's volunteering story
Denise shares her experience of setting up a support group following her own lymphoma diagnosis.
Tony Lormor
Professional footballer Tony was first diagnosed with follicular lymphoma in 2011, aged 41. Following successful radiotherapy, his lymphoma was in remission. But it relapsed (came back) last year and so Tony is currently preparing for his next round of treatment. He is sharing his story as part of our 2019 Blood Cancer Awareness Month campaign and also blogs about his experience.
