We've joined forces with 20 other cancer charities to create a unique and exciting 20-day challenge.

DKMS is dedicated to the fight against blood cancer through recruiting blood stem cell donors and providing second chances at life.

Due to the covid-19 pandemic weve seen a significant drop (49%) in people registering and taking that first step to become potential lifesavers.

At any given time around 2,000 people in the UK are in need of a blood stem cell transplant and with the number of people diagnosed with a blood cancer expected to raise this need has never been greater.

We have also seen that the donations that we depend on have decreased. Many fundraising events have been cancelled or postponed but with your help, DKMS UK can help more blood cancer patients to find their match.

Set up a your own JustGiving page or donate here to get started.

Someone is diagnosed with blood cancer in the UK every 20 minutes, and many will need a blood stem cell transplant for a second chance at life. We are committed to increasing the number of potential blood stem cell donors in the UK, so that there is a donor for everyone who needs one.
