When someone needs a lifesaving stem cell transplant, it’s a race against time
That’s why we’re launching the Anthony Nolan Cell Collection Centre. Our first dedicated collection centre will ensure lifesaving stem cells can reach more patients more quickly and create up to 1,300 new donation slots every year. With it, we’re increasing the potential to save many more lives and speeding up the time to transplant.
Our research: Unlocking new ways to treat every patient
Research has been our strength from the very start when Shirley Nolan took the groundbreaking step of establishing the world’s first register of volunteer bone marrow donors. But now is the time to push this pioneering spirit even further.
How your gift today can help save lives
- £20 goes a long way in helping us provide vital advice and information booklets for transplant patients and their families
- £40 is what it costs us to process and add the details of every potential lifesaver who joins the stem cell register
- £100 can help fund the groundbreaking research our scientists are doing right now to discover new treatments
Driven by Shirley’s dream: our mission to save more lives every day
Our founder Shirley Nolan had a dream that no child would die like her son Anthony, waiting for a donor to save them. Over fifty years on, that dream is still our guiding light – and our work gives four people another chance of life every day, matching donors with patients whose best chance of more time is a stem cell transplant.
No one should be kept waiting for a lifesaving transplant that could give them more time. We know we can keep cutting time to transplant, keep accelerating scientific progress, keep moving faster and win that race against time. We will always act and respond to each unanswered challenge we face. Because every moment counts.
