Dave and Lynn
“Myeloma UK has become very important to me. It’s good to know that they are there when needed and tirelessly working towards a cure.
We hosted a party in celebration of our golden wedding and Lynn’s 70th birthday. It was attended by family, friends and neighbours, everyone there had a special connection with us.”
Dave, who is living with myeloma and celebrated an event with his wife in aid of Myeloma UK

Serena and Paul
“We put our wishes on the invitations, asking people to kindly donate online or contribute via a donation box at the evening reception. We were deeply moved by the generosity of our guests and are profoundly grateful for their contributions.”
Serena was diagnosed with smouldering myeloma and has since used our website to keep up to date with news and clinical developments. When Serena and her partner Paul decided to get married, they chose to invite guests to donate to Myeloma UK in celebration of their special day.
