Thanks to @action4youth and @catch22charity, we’ve been able to get involved with their National Citizen Schemes programmes this summer. The incredible young people attending are spreading the message and recruiting donors to the @AnthonyNolan stem cell register.

A shocking statistic (that we’re working to change) is that if you’re White European, you have a 71% chance of finding your best possible unrelated donor match - but this drops to just 37% if you’re from a Black, Asian or minority ethnic background.
In the last year, we've received £1,200 from people recycling their vehicles with @Giveacar 🚗♻️
It makes a huge difference to us as a small charity with a big goal — ensuring that ALL blood cancer patients have an equal chance of finding a match.

This was the moment Alfie, now 5, met his lifesaver ❤
At just 7 months old, Alfie was diagnosed with leukaemia. Christin, from Germany, gave him a second chance of life.
This year, DKMS turns 30. Let's make more wonderful moments like this happen over the next 30 years 🎈
We are working in collaboration with @BloodCancerA and were looking to recruit a small advisory group of people who have been diagnosed with blood cancer and are from an ethnic minority background. Find out more here: https://t.co/N6H5DeacX7
