The Leukaemia Foundation is dedicated to supporting people with blood cancer and their loved ones as they travel the roller coaster of diagnosis, treatment and survivorship. We understand everyone’s circumstances are different and our healthcare professionals can help people identify and access the assistance they need, when they need it.
Our blood cancer support services are available for people with blood cancer, their families and friends at no cost. They cover issues including fatigue, relationship matters, mental health, finances and much more.

We have established relationships across the cancer care network with health professionals such as haematologists and allied health professionals, treating centres and hospitals, other not-for-profit organisations, and specialist assistance and support services such as Centrelink. This enables our team to help people access the right support at the right time.
