Leukaemia Foundation online support groups
These free online groups run by the Leukaemia Foundation are a wonderful source of support and sharing of knowledge.
Topics vary each month and the Leukaemia Foundation usually runs several different groups:
- a general blood cancer group
- a mens’ group
- a young adults’ group
- a carers’ group
Numbers are limited so it’s important to register early.
The topic for April is Self image/self identity
‘Self-identity is a combination of our personality traits, abilities, work, physical attributes, interests and social roles. The emotional and physical changes that come along with a blood cancer / disorder and treatment can change the way we perceive ourselves and how others see us. Join in for a discussion about how blood cancer / disorder impacts our self-identity, and discuss ways to help adjust to these changes..’
Dates are as follows:
| Date | Time | Topic | Group |
| 18 April | 1.00-2.30pm | Self-image/self-identity | Blood cancer patients |
