WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO HELP US TO FIGHT MYELOMA
What is myeloma?
Myeloma, also known as multiple myeloma, is a type of cancer arising from plasma cells which are found in the bone marrow.
Normal plasma cells produce antibodies (also called immunoglobulins) to help fight infection.
In myeloma, malignant plasma cells (myeloma cells) in the bone marrow produce large amounts of an abnormal antibody known as paraprotein. Unlike normal antibodies, paraprotein lacks the capacity to fight infection and has no useful function.
It is often through the measurement of this paraprotein that myeloma is diagnosed and monitored.
How Can I help?
Instead of paying Newcross directly for one of the following services you can simply donate the fees directly to Myeloma UK and help those affected by the cancer. We have dedicated days on which you can donate or you can pay directly to Myeloma UK. We will ask for proof of donation, so please don’t be offended, prior to the commencement of any training or service.
You can make a difference to someone’s life and help comply with legislation. No payment is required by Newcross nor do we wish you to send money to us. Please donate directly to Myeloma UK – Together we can beat cancer.
