What an evening celebrating the incredible people who do so much to support the life-saving work of @AnthonyNolan. The stories of selflessness, dedication & commitment at the #AnthonyNolanAwards always take me aback. Just wow. Honoured to be part of it.
So that’s the end of the awards! A huge thank you to our host @joe_crowley and to everyone who has supported us over the last 50 years – we couldn’t save lives through stem cells without you.

Today we’re celebrating #50YearsOfHope since a mother’s love inspired the world's first stem cell register – us!
Although Anthony sadly never had his second chance of life, thousands of lives have been saved ever since.
Shirley & Anthony’s legacy is lifesaving💚

On the 2nd December 1971, an inspirational little boy was born - Anthony Nolan.
Anthony's life was short, but his legacy is being felt by patients and families around the world today. Happy Birthday Anthony, from us all 💚

At 8 wks old, Sean was illegally smuggled into the UK, travelling 1000s of miles from Romania to be sold. His eyelids rolled in & he needed surgery to allow him to open his eyes. Will you write to your MP to demand they take action to end #PuppySmuggling? bit.ly/3G5K3Tx

The support for baby Francis has been incredible – thank you so much to everyone who has shared his story, and joined the register in his name. We’ve seen over 3000 people join the register over the last couple of weeks alone!
🚨PLEASE SHARE: Fight for Francis 🚨
Three-month-old Francis from Liverpool urgently needs your help. His parents have received the heartbreaking news that their baby has an aggressive form of blood cancer, and doctors have said a stem cell transplant is his only chance of a cure
