I am planning on running 50 miles this April on behalf of the University of Southampton Ballet’s Society, who are taking part in ‘Miles for Marrow’. Miles for Marrow is a society competition ran by Southampton Marrow, our student branch of Anthony Nolan. The society competition is on who can run the most miles and raise the most money during April so any donations are greatly appreciated 🫶🫶
Southampton Marrow is a part of the network of lifesaving students who work with the blood cancer charity, Anthony Nolan. There are over 50 Marrow groups, with hundreds of student volunteers in universities across the country, who are all working towards one thing - saving the lives of people with blood cancer. Every 14 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with blood cancer. For someone with blood cancer, a stem cell transplant could be their last chance of survival. At Anthony Nolan, we match incredible people willing to donate their stem cells, to people with blood cancer who are in desperate need of a lifesaving transplant.
