Over 2,000 people each year in the UK are in need of a blood stem cell transplant, however, just three percent of the UK’s population are registered as potential donors.Help us to find more donors
The more people who register as blood stem cell donors, the better the chance for someone in need of a blood stem cell transplant to find their perfect match.
