Anthony Nolan is delighted to announce the shortlist for the 2020 Anthony Nolan Supporter Awards (ANSAs)! 

Finalists in 16 categories will be recognised in Anthony Nolan’s annual celebration. For 2020’s awards, our celebration will involve celebrities and specially invited supporters announcing the winners in specially pre-recorded films, which can be viewed right here on Thursday 11 February 2021, from 7pm. 

Henny Braund, Chief Executive of Anthony Nolan, says: ‘Congratulations to everyone who has being shortlisted in the 2020 Anthony Nolan Supporter Awards.  

‘Every day, at least five people begin their search for a matching unrelated stem cell donor to treat their blood cancer or blood disorder. We’re incredibly lucky to have so many fantastic people supporting Anthony Nolan’s vital work to find a match for everyone in need of a lifesaving transplant. This year it is perhaps more important than ever to celebrate our nominees who have put a great deal of time and energy into supporting Anthony Nolan.  

‘We want to say a massive thank you, and congratulations, to all our nominees. Whether or not you win, nominees like you really are all winners to us.’
