Every day Anthony Nolan matches incredible individuals willing to donate their blood stem cells or bone marrow to people with blood cancer and blood disorders who desperately need a lifesaving transplant.
Emmy Award-winning BBC journalist Sue Lloyd-Roberts has aggressive leukaemia and urgently needs a stem cell donor to save her life. A donor recruitment event will be held at BBC's New Broadcasting House on Monday 22nd June, where BBC staff will join the Anthony Nolan register using a simple saliva test.
Anthony Nolan recruit people aged 16-30 as they are far more likely to go on to donate their stem cells and save a life, and they have better outcomes for patients. It costs £100 to recruit and tissue type each new person who joins the register, so if you're over 30 you can still help! Thank you so much for any donations.
