Description
People with Leukaemia and other blood cancers often need a stem cell transplant as a last attempt at saving their life.
However, 70% of people need an unrelated donor so it is very difficult to find a match.
Bristol Marrow is a student charity working with Anthony Nolan that aims to sign up students onto the stem cell registers.
For every one hundred students we sign up, statistically one will donate in their lifetime and potentially save a life.
Throughout the year we organise various donor drives and fundraising events to raise awareness and funding for stem cell donation and, After rewarding days of volunteering and fundraising, there will always be a social.
Marrow is a great way to make friends whilst making a real difference.
