As the world’s leading blood stem cell donor centre, we are constantly improving our quality standards.

What happens if your tissue characteristics match those of a patient?

Once you have undergone confirmatory typing, we will know you are a “genetic twin” and can prepare to donate to your matched patient.

There are several methods by which you may be asked to donate your blood stem cells or lymphocytes.

After your stem cell donation, we ask you to take part in a donor follow-up. This helps us to keep a close eye on your well-being.

After donating, you may find you have new questions. These may be about the recipient of the stem cells. How are they doing? Is it possible to get in touch or even get to know each other?
