Practical support

Practical challenges are a big part of living with leukaemia. These challenges often affect families and carers as well as patients.

We campaign to improve access to practical support so people are not left to cope alone.

The challenges people face

People affected by leukaemia may struggle with:

  • Financial pressure
  • Work and employment issues
  • Travel and accommodation costs
  • Accessing the right support at the right time

These challenges can add stress at an already difficult time.

What we work to change

We use insight from our services to:

  • Highlight gaps in practical support
  • Push for fairer systems and clearer information
  • Help shape services that reflect real needs

Our aim is to reduce pressure on families and help people focus on their health and wellbeing.
