Sock it for Lymphoedema

1st Mar 2021

💙 This week is Lymphoedema Awareness Week and two of our pupils, Mary-Kate and Ben who are affected by this have a story they would like to share with you to raise awareness.

🧦 Tomorrow we are asking the pupils to #sockit for #lymphoedemaawareness by wearing odd socks to draw attention to the legs and feet just as it is for children with lymphoedema of the lower limbs as their compression graments, bandages and specially made shoes often draw attention.

💙 We are so proud of Ben and Mary-Kate and the courage and positivity they show everyday. So sit back, enjoy the story and #sockit for #lymphoedemaawareness tomorrow.
