The LSN actively encourages the formation of local lymphoedema support groups that provide information, education and mutual support for people with lymphoedema, their families and carers. Support groups may be run by health care professionals or patients and are generally based in lymphoedema clinics or local centres.
Whilst all the support groups listed below are completely independent of the LSN, we maintain contact with them and can provide contact details for the locations listed below.
