Hello,
Welcome to the Winter issue of our magazine!
bit.ly/LeukaemiaMattersWint...
It’s been another busy year for Leukaemia Care as we celebrated our 50th anniversary. We spent much of the year working harder than ever to provide support and advice to those affected by blood cancer, and we were delighted to have our work recognised by a special visit from HRH Duchess of Gloucester, GCVO.
You can learn more about what we’ve been up to during this eventful year by turning to page four.
Elsewhere in this issue, we’re featuring an uplifting story from acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patient Nicky Turkoz, who shares how a stem cell transplant not only saved her life, but also brought her closer to her donor and now lifelong friend, Annette.
Also inside this issue, you can learn about our special charity Christmas appeal with the Telegraph, as well as read an honest account on survivorship from acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) patient Thea.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Christopher Matthews-Maxwell
Chairman
