Our support meetings provide a safe, confidential place where people affected by lymphoma can share their experience, express their thoughts and feelings, gain insight from connecting with others, and get support and information.
We have a range of monthly general support meetings and specialised meetings for people affected by particular types or experiences of lymphoma. All our support meetings take place on Zoom. If you're aged 18 or over, resident in the UK and affected by lymphoma, you're welcome to register.
These support meetings are for anyone personally affected by lymphoma, at any stage from diagnosis, through treatment and beyond, including carers.
There are dedicated meetings for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, at various days and times throughout the month.
For people with a diagnosis of lymphoma who are waiting to start treatment. Meetings are held at on the first Thursday of the month at 7.30pm or the fourth Wednesday at 4pm.
Support for partners, family members and close friends of someone living with a diagnosis of lymphoma. Meetings are held at on the second Monday of the month at 6.30pm or the third Wednesday at 11am.
For people with a diagnosis of lymphoma that started in the skin. Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month at 4pm or the fourth Thursday at 7.30pm.
Meetings for young adults aged between 18-35 who are personally affected by lymphoma. Meetings are held on the third Monday of the month at 7pm.
For people with a diagnosis of one of the particularly rare types of lymphoma. Meetings are held at on the third Wednesday of the month at 4pm or the second Wednesday at 7.30pm.
These meetings focus on a different topic in lymphoma each month and are for anyone affected by that issue. Meetings held at 6.30pm on the fourth Tuesday of every month.
Support meetings are hosted on Zoom, last an hour and follow a common structure, including time for everyone to share their experience and feelings about life with lymphoma.
Meetings are facilitated by Lymphoma Action staff and trained volunteer Online Support Facilitators, who will listen, seek to understand your experience and help address any questions or worries you have. Most support meetings include information about issues of interest and the Charity’s other services and events.
"We have just finished today's online support meeting. Once again, I found it so very helpful to talk and listen to others with similar experiences. It's supportive, refreshing, reassuring and informative every time"
