We are the University run branch of Anthony Nolan, helping to save the lives of people with blood cancers and blood disorders by signing people aged 16-30 to the stem cell register.
Without you, there is no cure!
Our incredible volunteers power our lifesaving work. Without you, we wouldn’t be able to help people with blood cancer find the matching stem cell donors they need to live.
You could make a lifesaving difference with as little as a few spare hours each week. By becoming one of Anthony Nolan’s outstanding volunteers, you can give the hope of a lifesaving stem cell transplant to people with blood cancer and blood disorders.
What does volunteering with Marrow involve?
There are three key parts to Marrow’s mission that you can help with:
1. Raising awareness – by posting on social media, holding events, and running talks around campus, Manchester Marrow volunteers help raise awareness of blood cancer, stem cell transplants, and Anthony Nolan.
2. Signing up new stem cell donors – volunteers are trained to run recruitment events across their campuses (and beyond!) to give every student the opportunity to join the Anthony Nolan stem cell register. Research has shown that the younger a donor is, the better chance of survival a patient has – so signing up students is key!
3. Fundraising – Manchester Marrow holds fantastic fundraising events, from bake sales to bucket shakes, sponsored runs to sparkling balls, they raise money to support Anthony Nolan’s vital work.
All of this fantastic work helps to give more and more patients with blood cancer or a blood disorder a second chance at life.
Sign up to volunteer with Manchester Marrow and you can learn new skills, make new friends, boost your CV and save lives!
