It’s already been a week since the Marrow National Conference in Leeds and we miss it already 💔💙

Very excited to be on my way to Leeds for our first F2F @AnthonyNolan @UKMarrow conference. Wonderful students from across the UK support our work by recruiting donors, raising funds and awareness. They are an awesome bunch and I can’t wait to see them to say thank you.

We are at Leeds for the @UKMarrow National Conference 2022! #StemCellDonation @AnthonyNolan

Thank you @bbcsoutheast for covering Evie's story and raising awareness of the need for young people from South Asian backgrounds to join the register 🙌💚 Here's hoping we can find Evie — and so many other patients like her — a match. https://t.co/BXt6Y1q1tw

‘It was a relief that my sexuality wasn’t a barrier to joining the register.’ Ruby, who is pansexual, donated her bone marrow to someone in need of a transplant a few years ago. Are you a member of the LGBTQ+ community? Learn how you can save a life: https://t.co/FcpgEBzv58🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Sign up to the stem cell donor register at

“Being a Black stem cell donor has allowed me to potentially save the life of another Black person” If you're 16-30, you could save the life of someone with the same ethnicity. One day, you could be #ProudToBe a stem cell donor who cures someone's blood cancer, just like Joice!

That’s not all- Marrowers also recruited 1008 people to the stem cell register this month altogether! Smashed it 🎉

For #MarchOfTheMen, Marrow groups recruited an incredible 503 men to the register. We couldn’t have done it without our brilliant volunteers all over the UK! Thank you so much to everyone who gave up your time to sign up potential lifesavers! Without you, there is no cure.

This is the heartwarming moment when Joanna, a third-year medical student and co-president of Cardiff Marrow, met Dr Alex George. 🥰 A huge fan of Dr Alex, Joanna is in need of 4 months of chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant to treat her cancer.

Here’s the first episode featuring donor, Andy Mitchell. Please have a listen, RT and most importantly, if you can, sign up to the #stem #cell register with @AnthonyNolan or @DKMS_uk. You could be someone’s #MagicalMatch

For anyone who is interested in stem cell donation, this is the podcast for you. The first episode is an interesting chat with @andymitchell73 about his donor experience. I’m sure you’ll be inspired to join the Register @AnthonyNolan or @DKMS_uk

Well done to @DurhamMarrow for winning Register Champion of the year at the #AnthonyNolanAwards last night! Keep up the amazing work 👏

Our very own National Marrow President, Elin Scanlon presented an award at the #AnthonyNolanAwards yesterday! Watch it here:

Eeeeeek! Congratulations @DurhamMarrow, you’re the winners! 🏆 Last academic year they recruited the highest number of people to the register out of all of our Marrow groups! A huge pat-on-the-back for all of your hard work and dedication. 🥳 #AnthonyNolanAwards
