JOBST proudly supports the British Lymphology Society (BLS) in raising awareness of lymphoedema during March. Lymphoedema Awareness Month is all about appreciating the impact lymphoedema has on people’s lives, championing earlier diagnosis, and promoting the importance of effective, ongoing lymphoedema management. Throughout the month, healthcare professionals, patient organisations, and advocates come together to improve understanding of the condition, and show our support for those living with a swelling such as lymphoedema or chronic oedema.

Perfectly Different, Perfectly Matched
There is often a stigma that surrounds lymphoedema, and as Healthcare Professional you play a key role in helping patients overcome this stigma at the same time as helping them manage their condition. Our Perfectly Different, Perfectly Matched campaign is designed to provide resources to support you as you manage each patient's individuality. JOBST is here to support you with helpful resources for garment selection when treating lymphoedema. These practical resources include a step-by-step guide to select the most suitable compression garment, and a guide looking at the most common lymphoedema challenges.
International Lymphoedema Day | 6 March 2026
Each year, the 6th of March marks International Lymphoedema Day. A day when we all join together to raise global awareness of lymphoedema and what can be done to support patients living with lymphatic related conditions. Patient organisations in many countries, such as the Lymphoedema Support Network in the UK work tirelessly each year take a lead role in educating and supporting patients with lymphoedema.
Many organisations, healthcare providers, hospitals and lymphoedema clinics will be celebrating this annual event in some way. Follow us on Facebook as we share some of their stories.
