Our aim to raise awareness and get more ethnic minorities on the stem cell donor register. So far, we’ve run hundreds of donor drives across the UK, signed up over 2,500 people, boosted British Asian representation on the register, and helped save at least seven lives. Together, we’re making a real difference.
Did you know only 30% of patients find a matching donor within their family? For many, a stem cell transplant from a stranger is their only chance at survival.
Donating stem cells is often quick and painless - stem cells are collected from your blood and given to a patient in need. By becoming a donor, you could give someone the ultimate gift: a second chance at life.
In 2024, we created our first documentary to raise awareness about the importance of stem cell donation. You will hear the remarkable narratives of four individuals who have experienced firsthand the impact of either saving a life or having their own life saved by this simple yet profound act.
