Bloodwise is now Blood Cancer UK

Bloodwise has changed its name to Blood Cancer UK.

Blood Cancer UK is a UK charity that funds research into, and supports people living with, blood cancers (i.e. leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma, among others).

Blood cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the UK. And while huge progress has been made in improving treatment since Bloodwise was founded in 1960, it is still the third biggest cause of UK cancer deaths – taking more lives each year than breast or prostate cancer.

Blood Cancer UK was originally set up in 1960 as the Leukaemia Research Fund. The charity was started by the Eastwood family from Middlesbrough, who began raising money following the death of their six-year-old daughter, Susan.

Since the first leukaemia research unit was opened at Great Ormond Street Hospital in 1961, Blood Cancer UK has invested £500 million in scientific research into blood cancer. It’s thanks to all this work, as part of a global movement of research into blood cancer, that six in 10 people diagnosed with blood cancer in the UK now survive at least five years.

Had Susan Eastwood been diagnosed with the same type of blood cancer today, it is likely that she would have lived.

If you or someone you know is affected by blood cancer, contact Blood Cancer UK's free, confidential support line on 0808 2080 888 or click here. Please support Blood Cancer UK's vital research and support work by clicking here.
