Ryan Ferguson was just three when he was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia and needed a bone marrow transplant to save his life. Ryan’s family would like to say a big thank you to all of the volunteers who fundraise to support Anthony Nolan’s lifesaving work.

Stuart, Ryan’s father, says, ‘I would like to thank everyone who takes the time to fundraise for Anthony Nolan because even the smallest amount of money can help save someone's life.

‘It costs £100 to add each new potential donor added to the register. If the money is not there, then we can't get new potential donors on the register. Whatever you raise it will always make a difference and, collectively, we can save lives. Thank you to everyone who supports Anthony Nolan - you have all helped save the life of our son Ryan.’

An incredible team of 2,500 volunteers who help to fundraise for Anthony Nolan each year and help us recruit more potential donors to the register. You can find out more about fundraising opportunities here.
