LYMPHO NEWS

Dear friends,

Hearing from you about what is happening with research, treatment, and patient advocacy shows that knowledge and information are needed. It is heartening to note that work done within the ILF network is being presented in forums other than lymphoedema-specific ones. Indeed, expanding discussions with more diverse populations can help raise awareness and foster collaboration among a broader range of stakeholders, including healthcare professionals, researchers, patients, and advocates.

If you want to know more about what the ILF has achieved so far in 2023 and our ongoing vision, do join us for our virtual update for industry on 23 October at 1.00pm (UK time - see below).

Meanwhile, we will keep you up to date with all our developments each month through this newsletter. As always, do let us know your news so that we can share it internationally.

With best wishes from
Christine Moffatt CBE and the ILF Board of Directors
