Lymphoma Australia has a range of ways to help you connect with others, and get the support you need. Support groups (also called group chats) are a great way to connect with others going through similar challenges, and achievements as you are.
On this page, you will find information and be able to register for online or in-person support groups. You will also find links to the different patient forums you can join.
Upcoming Group Chats (support groups)
Below you will find a list of upcoming Group Chats you can register for. These are great if you want to connect with others affected by lymphoma. These chats are supported with a nurse from Lymphoma Australia who can answer your questions or help you get the right information, but they are more informal and led by you, the patients or carer. These sessions let you share your experiences, concerns, learn from each other and get peer support.
