As some of you may know, back in 2022, after registering with Anthony Nolan, I was found to be a match for somebody who needed a stem cell transplant.

I was lucky enough to be in a position where I could donate my stem cells and give this person a chance of a healthy life.

I’ve decided to take part in The Great Birmingham Run 2024 to raise funds and awareness for such a worthwhile cause.

Every day, Anthony Nolan saves the lives of people with a blood cancer or blood disorder. We do this by matching incredible individuals willing to donate their stem cells to people who desperately need a lifesaving transplant. We also carry out cutting edge scientific research, fund specialist post-transplant nurses and support patients and their families through the transplant process and beyond. We won’t stop until we save the lives of everyone who needs a stem cell transplant. Every penny you donate brings us closer to that day.
