Story

I’m taking on the leg it for Lymphoma challenge by walking/running/jogging 50k over the next 30 days. I’m doing this to raise awareness of Lymphoma. My auntie was diagnosed in her 20’s after many years of misdiagnosis. If there had been more knowledge of this disease then she could have been diagnosed sooner.

Shockingly, Lymphoma is the most common cancer in teenagers and young people and every 27 minutes another person is diagnosed.

Lymphoma is the most common cancer in young adults. We can’t afford to stay quiet anymore. Lymphoma Out Loud is an education and awareness initiative for under 30s. We maybe small, but we're a mighty team with one vital and important message – #BeBodyBrave We want everyone to know the signs and symptoms, be body aware, and to have the confidence to head to the GP if they notice anything that doesn't feel right. We want to spread the message of being body brave.

This form of cancer is becoming increasingly more common with many are unaware of its life-threatening form. We scream in the face of cancer and help others to confront their fears too."
