The British Lymphology Society (BLS) is the foremost organisation for healthcare professionals involved in managing patients with lymphoedema / chronic oedema and those with an interest in the condition. It is a charity run by and for its members who share its mission:

To actively promote professional standards and the study, understanding and treatment of lymphoedema and its complications.

BLS provides a strong voice for members, offering peer support, resources and guidance to achieve high standards of care and equitable access to treatment across the UK, raise awareness of the condition, promote early detection and intervention with supported self-management. We work with other stakeholders, advise the government, NHS and other professional bodies and organisations to effect change and influence practice.
