The people of the Illawarra are very generous and just at Warrawong Pl...aza, over eight days, we made over $3000. Thankyou to everyone who came to see us and bought their gifts to be wrapped.

19.01.2022 Hello wonderful people, For those that I haven't been able to speak to face to face, I am closing The Lymphoedema Clinic on the 28th of September. I have been given the opportunity to do a PhD through The University of Sydney which I have been juggling with the clinic for the past 12 months. I have decided to focus on just study (and my boys) for the next couple of years. ... Thank you to you all for trusting me with your lymphoedema care. I have loved all the chats and the (pre covid) cuddles. Let me know if you need any support to find other lymphoedema services or any other questions. Lots of love Nicola

I am able to offer telehealth appointments if you require any support over this time. Please contact me on 0435625365 if you want to chat through how telehealth might work for you. Take care and stay home wherever possible.

10.01.2022 Good morning. I have had a few queries about corona virus this week. This is some helpful advice about lymphoedema and corona virus from the Lymphoedema Support network in the UK.

Please call the clinic if you have any questions.

09.01.2022 10/10/2019 is world mental health day. Having a chronic condition like Lymphoedema can take its toll on our mind and body. 1 in 5 people are affected by mental health but many don’t seek help. The Lymphoedema Clinic aims to support everyone to cope with the burden of lymphoedema, both physical and emotional and reduce the stigma around seeking support for mental health. If you’d like to help too, Make a mental health promise at https://1010.org.au/make-a-promise/
