Our mission is to fund raise for CLL (Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia) Support Association.

CLL Support is run by member volunteers, with only 2 part time employees, who organise conferences, venues, attendees etc. There is no financial charge for being a member of CLL Support, or attending a conference. The CLL Support Association has been active for many years & has held many conferences around the UK. These are invaluable for people, particularly newly diagnosed but also for its many members throughout their treatments over the years.

Eminent NHS Professors, Consultants & Doctors attend the conferences providing valuable information on different treatments and drugs that are being developed, and most importantly giving advice and hope to CLL patients. This information is extremely helpful to people about to start treatment, allowing them to understand & discuss with their haematologist, the proposed treatment.

CLL Support remained active during Covid years, with zoom meetings & help in coping with an illness where the patient’s immune system is severely damaged.

Our mum (& Grandma), Pam was diagnosed with CLL in 2001 so has lived with the illness for 22 years. She has been helped by chemotherapy treatment in 2012 for 6 months & a 2 year drug treatment, Ventoclax in 2020. She is well now but continues to be vigilant, particularly in crowded situations.

When Gav is in the UK in July this year, he, myself & Jude will be taking on a trail half marathon - my first trail run & Jude’s first run ever- a big challenge for his first ever event!

In August, I will also be running the Solihull half marathon road race where I hope to achieve a personal best time, along with Jed who will be competing in the children’s race:)
