After the very successful Lymphoedema screenings in the Riverland in 2005 & 2009, Northern Territory, Mt Gambier and Naracoorte, further screenings are proposed for Broken Hill and Mildura.

The original motion from the Lions Club of Berri expired on the 30th June 2008.  At the Broken Hill convention in 2008 the Lions Club of Noarlunga Morphett Vale  moved a motion extending the project for 1 year.  

Many People in the community know little about the incidence of Lymphoedema, the extent of personal discomfort associated with Lymph Node damage, and the enormous costs, both personally and to the community for subsequent treatment.  A commitment from the LIONS of District 201C2  for the “Free Lymphoedema Screening Project” would put Lions at the forefront of making the community more aware of the Risks, Solutions, and Preventative Strategies of this debilitating disease.
