Aged 16-30?
We're calling on anybody aged 16-30 to join 1 Million United and potentially save a life.
There are currently around 900,000 people on the Anthony Nolan stem cell register. Our goal is to reach 1 million.
Anthony Nolan makes lifesaving matches for people with blood cancer and blood disorders. A stem cell transplant could give someone a second chance at life.
The bigger the squad, the more matches we can find, and the more shots we have to save lives.
You can help save more lives through stem cells.
So, are you in?
Talk Swab
One swab could save a life. It’s fast and easy to join the stem cell register and become part of 1 Million United.
What’s more important than scoring goals? Saving lives!
Check out what happened when we brought two grassroots teams and a world-class referee together, all in aid of swabbing and building the stem cell register.
Over 30?
Stem cell donations from younger donors give people with blood cancers or blood disorders a better chance of survival.
But if you're 30+ you can still save lives. It costs Anthony Nolan £40 to recruit each lifesaver to the register.

How to become a stem cell donor
It’s quick and easy to sign up to the stem cell register. You request a swab in the post, it takes a minute to swab inside your cheek and then post it back.
