Did you know that 13,000 chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) patients are on active monitoring, also known as ‘Watch and Wait’ in the UK? We understand being placed on watch and wait can be a very confusing and upsetting time.
In order to help you understand watch and wait, and how to live well whilst on it, join our webinar on 12th April, where we will be joined by specialist speakers to answer the questions you may have.
We will be joined by:
- Professor Chris Fegan – Emeritus Professor Cardiff School of Medicine and Consultant Haematologist University Hospital of Wales.
- Charlotte Bloodworth – Advanced Nurse Practitioner University Hospital of Wales
- Bryony Tyrell – Lymphoid Clinical Nurse Specialist University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust
- CLL patient with long term active monitoring experience
- CLL patient who is new to active monitoring

How do I join the webinar?
The webinar is being hosted on Zoom and Facebook, meaning you can choose a platform to suit you. Zoom is the best place to ask questions, but if you join via Facebook we will try and get all the questions sent over to our panel; however, please expect a delay.

Please note, we will not be able to give individual medical advice. You will be directed to your own clinical team if we cannot answer your question in the webinar.
Due to the large amount of registrants, we cannot guarantee that everyone’s questions will be answered, but we will try and do our best in the time frame that we have.
