It was such a privilege to welcome the Lymphoma Coalition to Dublin this week! 🇮🇪✨
And for CLL Ireland Michael Rynne to open the global summit.

CLL Ireland is incredibly proud to be part of this remarkable Coalition, now representing over 100 member organisations across the globe.
Especially great to connect with our CLL community from around the world within the Coalition.

This connection keeps us united with friends and allies worldwide, all driven by one shared mission: ensuring every patient, everywhere, has access to the very best treatment and care, no matter where they live. 💙

A heartfelt thank you to Lorna Warwick for your extraordinary dedication and service to our community you’ve built something truly special. And a warm welcome to our new CEO, Patricia Gilmore, we’re so excited for this next chapter together! 🚀

A big thank you to Susan Thornton and Guy Bouguet for steering the Coalition in the right direction and making sure the voices of the members are heard.

Special thanks to the LC team Natacha, Shawn, Catherine, Kim, Amanda and Marjorie for putting this conference together.

The advocacy and collaboration continues.

CLL Ireland was delighted to attend this important event at Dáil Éireann to campaign for a Cellular Transplant centre in Cork.

It was incredibly encouraging to see such strong support from our politicians! 🇮🇪
Also great to see so much interest in blood cancers and it's impact on our community.


It is so vital that blood cancer patients across Ireland have access to the very best treatments, closer to home.

We were heartened to see powerful international support too, including from Professor Ibrahim Yakoub-Agha, President of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), and from our own expert consultant Vitaliy Mykytiv at Cork University Hospital (CUH).

Hearing patient stories and seeing so many blood cancer transplant survivors standing together in support of this campaign was truly powerful. Their voices make all the difference 💙


A huge thank yoMags McCarthyarthy and Senator Eileen Lynch for organising such a meaningful, impactful day, we stand with you all in calling for stem cell transplant and CAR‑T capacity to be expanded at CUH, for better care for patients across the South and across Ireland.

Today is a very special day for the CLL Ireland community. 💙

We are delighted to welcome patients, care partners and friends to our CLL Ireland Patient & Care Partner Information Day in Dublin.

We have an incredible line-up of speakers who will share their expertise, experience and practical advice, but most importantly, today is about our community: coming together, listening, learning and making sure the voices of people living with CLL are heard.

A special welcome to our international speakers.

We are particularly excited to welcome Brian Koffman, a founding member of the CLL Society Inc. and someone who has been living with CLL for more than 20 years. Brian is joining us in Dublin to share his personal experience, knowledge and insights with our community.

We are also delighted to welcome Lorna Warwick CEO of Lymphoma Coalition. CLL Ireland is proud to be a member of Lymphoma Coalition, and we greatly value the opportunity to be part of this global community working together to improve the lives of people affected by lymphoma and CLL.

Another important international speaker, Sarah Gunn Senior Project Manager with Picker Institute Europe who help CLL Ireland with their surveys.

We also hear from a great line up of clinical speakers and the CLL Ireland team.

Proud to have Fionnuala Clifton as our MC for the day.

Days like today remind us of the importance of connection, information and support. No one should have to navigate CLL alone.

We are really looking forward to seeing everyone, catching up with old friends, meeting new ones and sharing a great day together.

Welcome to Dublin and welcome to the CLL Ireland community! 💙
