African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust
Our 2006 combination of ACLT clinics contributed 3036 UK donors onto The Anthony Nolan Trust register. Therefore after 30 clinics our average was over 100 people registered per clinic.
New dates will SOON be added to our 2007 list of registration clinics. So please keep checking.
Our aim is to increase the Black representation on the UK registers (Anthony Nolan Trust and the National Blood Service) from our current approx. 20,000 to approx 60,000 potential donors. By increasing our numbers we increase the chances of finding suitable life saving matches.
If you are aged 18-40 and live in the UK we can consider you as a potential Bone Marrow donor (even if you have Sickle Cell Trait) but you must be willing to register as a possible bone marrow match for all patients (with a similar ethnicity/racial background) around the world awaiting possible matches. Please note that you cannot just walk into your Doctor's practice or any hospital to give a blood sample to register as a donor.
