Our story

The Wi - Inspiring women

The Women's Institute members across the UK have chosen to support DKMS in our mission to find a matching blood stem cell donor for every blood cancer patient in need of one!

By raising awareness and encouraging members and their network of contacts to join the stem cell registry, The WI will help support more patients to find their life-saver in waiting.

“We are delighted to be working with The WI to increase awareness of blood stem cell donation and support us to achieve our mission of finding a matching donor for every blood cancer patient in need of one. Receiving the diagnosis is devastating for patients and their families.

"During the current COVID19 pandemic, it is even more crucial that we do all we can to offer hope to people with blood cancer and blood disorders. We have seen the number of people joining the blood stem cell register decline dramatically in recent times, and now more than ever before, we need you to sign up”.

Jonathan Pearce, DKMS CEO
