To mark this special awareness day we have just opened a members-only Facebook group for everyone impacted by chronic myeloid leukaemia, allowing patients, carers and family members to share their experiences. Well also provide helpful information and research news. Tap to join this closed group today and start sharing your CML journey with others.
14.01.2022 Today marks the 15th anniversary of the Leukaemia Foundation Courtesy Transport Service. It was on this day 15 years ago, the distinctive vehicles were launched at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Melbourne. The program commenced as a result of a generous sponsorship from Bridgestone Tyre Centres, Holden and the Peter Brock Foundation. It is thanks to this wonderful partnership, as well as the dedicated team of volunteer drivers that the Foundation is able to provide this valuable service to those affected by blood cancer. The service aims to reduce the burden of those who may have limited transport options and ensure they arrive for treatments and appointments safely and on time.

04.01.2022 Leukaemia Foundation Light the Night - Ruby wasnt even 24 hours-old when her parents faced the worst news imaginable - their newborn girl was seriously ill with a rare form of Leukaemia. A bone marrow transplant was her only option. During Rubys six-and-a-half months of treatment in Melbourne, the Leukaemia Foundation provided her family with a free apartment to stay in to ease their burden over this unimaginable time.... The delightful Ruby is one of our ambassadors for Leukaemia Foundation Light the Night this year. Watch her full story below. #LighttheNight #walkwithme #curecancer #beatbloodcancer
