About - L-W-O Community | HealthUnlocked

Welcome to the L-W-O Community. We are a non-profit group set up in September 2013 for anyone who lives with lymphoedema or a lymphatic malformation. L-W-O is based in the UK, but we do have a global following. There is thought to be over 400,000 people in the UK living with lymphoedema.

We are an established Community who provide non-medical tips and advice for our members. Lymphoedema takes a while to come to terms with, as you do, the more positive you can be about your condition then the easier it becomes to live with. Please remember that lymphoedema is manageable with the right treatment. L-W-O’s aim is:

 A community that brings people together for a common cause and shared interest in lymphoedema

 Promote self-care and positivity

 To encourage you to become your own advocate

 Share stories about the lives of those living with lymphoedema

 Share new research, campaigns and debates from the lymphoedema community

 Voice loud and clear - Lymphoedema exists, we exist
