The Leukaemia Foundation continues to support the blood cancer community in Mackay and across Australia.
In 2022 Leukaemia Foundation’s fight for people living with blood cancer continues on many fronts. Unfortunately, recent health data has identified that each and every day, more than 50 Australians will be diagnosed with a blood cancer, an increase from 47 people each day in 2020.
Blood cancers combined are Australia’s second most diagnosed cancer and sadly, the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths, which is more than breast cancer and melanoma combined.
