On Sunday 23rd March this year, I'm joining an intrepid team from Leeds Marrow who are tackling the 3 highest peaks in Yorkshire in 1 day to fundraise for Anthony Nolan!
Anthony Nolan run the literally lifesaving stem cell donor register, a service for people with blood cancers, such as leukaemia, to find donors willing to offer stem cell donations. Leeds Marrow are a bunch of university students who are passionate about raising awareness of this simple way to make a real difference, sign people up to the register and fundraise for it.
You've probably heard me mention Marrow once or twice before and it is a cause I am very involved with and passionate about. It costs over £100 to sign someone up to the register, an amazing selfless person who has a 1 in 100 chance of going on to offer a second chance to someone suffering from lifethreatening blood cancers.
So please dig deep, for what is an incredibly worthy cause!
