This September, we - the haematology research nurses at Belfast City Hospital - will be taking part in Cure Leukaemia's "Your14" Challenge.

September is Blood Cancer Awareness month, and every 14 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with a form of blood cancer. As part of the research team we see everyday how valuable a contribution cureleukaemia makes towards supporting our roles and promoting new trials that seek to improve the lives and treatments of every person diagnosed with a blood cancer.

As a token of our gratitude and to support this wonderful charity who have always supported us, we plan on climbing 14 floors of the iconic Belfast City Hospital Tower for 14 days! This takes us through Bridgewater Suite which is where our outpatients are treated right up to ward 10 North where many haematology patients are cared for as inpatients.

So please consider supporting Laura, Una, Karen and Naomi as we undertake this challenge!
