Summary
Dame Kelly Holmes is fighting to save lives by launching a powerful awareness campaign for multiple myeloma, the blood cancer that claimed her mother’s life. With 57% of the public unaware of this disease — which affects over 33,000 in the UK — she’s urging people to recognize subtle but critical early symptoms like fatigue, bone pain, and infections. Her mission, “Get Ahead of Multiple Myeloma,” is fueled by personal loss and aims to empower patients to speak up using Myeloma UK’s Symptom Translator tool — so no family has to endure the devastating delay in diagnosis she witnessed.
