When treatment ends, the challenges don’t necessarily finish too. Blood cancer never really leaves you; it can keep taking. Your energy. Your time. Your comfort. If you feel everyone else has moved on, our community is still here. We know what it takes, and we’ll support you.

Around 6.3 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed between now and 2040. But more than 509,000 cases of blood cancer are a piece of that puzzle. We joined #OneCancerVoice in Westminster to ensure the National Cancer Plan in England delivers for everyone affected by cancer.
