How does taking part in Walking Together save lives?
For someone with blood cancer, a stem cell transplant could be their last chance of survival. Today, five people will start their search for a stranger to save their life. They need a matching stem cell donor, and that’s where Anthony Nolan comes in.
By taking on a sponsored walk, your fundraising will add new potential donors to the Anthony Nolan stem cell register, find more matches for people with blood cancer, and give more people a second chance of life. Isn’t that incredible?
Here's exactly what your money can do:

How do I take part in Walking Together?
Getting involved couldn’t be easier. Here’s how in five easy steps.
1. Sign up today
We’ll keep in touch with top fundraising tips and ideas to help make your walk a big success!
2. Choose your distance and pick your date(s)
We’ve suggested three lifesaving distances to help your planning (3, 14 and 21 miles) or you can pick your own! There is no set route you need to follow so you can go for a quick stroll or spend the day striding around local sights! We’d love to hear your ideas and help you make it special.
3. Gather the troops
Invite your friends, family and colleagues to join you, whether that’s in real life or virtually. Walking Together is always fun, but you can go solo too if you want some space and a chance to reflect.
4. Raise those lifesaving funds!
Set up your Walking Together fundraising page and share wherever people follow you and with family, friends and colleagues. Once you’ve received your first donation, we’ll send you your Walking Together t-shirt(s)!
5. Walk Together
On the day(s) of your walk, remember you’re doing something amazing to save the lives of people with blood cancer, so shout about it! Post photos from the day on social media using #WalkingTogether and help raise more awareness.
