Mr Norman Peart

Patients and carers come first in everything we do. We’re dedicated to helping myeloma patients live longer and have the best possible quality of life.

We are committed to:

• Being collaborative and results driven with a focus on investing in patient centred research
• Improving standards of treatment and care through education and raising awareness
  Working with industry and decision-makers to ensure patients get access to the right treatment at the right time
• Providing a range of information and support services to patients, family and friends to help them deal with everything a myeloma diagnosis brings

Myeloma research

We direct investment into strategic research which offers the best chance of significantly improving outcomes for myeloma patients. Our important research spans from the laboratory bench to the patient’s bedside.

Education for healthcare professionals

We provide unique resources and tailored information for those involved in the treatment and care of myeloma patients.

Patient advocacy

Our Patient Advocacy Team collaborates with patients, doctors, the Government, NHS and the pharmaceutical industry to influence UK health policy and gain timely access to new treatments for myeloma patients.

Patient information and support

Our Services Team makes sure myeloma patients have access to the best possible information and support to help them come to terms with their diagnosis. The team helps patients and their family make informed decisions about their treatment, care and personal life.
