Anthony Nolan

Anthony Nolan is a UK charity that works in the areas of leukaemia and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

[2] The charity is named after Anthony Nolan (born 1971–died 1979), who did not suffer from leukaemia but from Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome, a rare inherited blood disorder.

[5] A student organisation operating in universities throughout the UK known as 'Marrow' works with Anthony Nolan to recruit potential donors to the register and raise awareness of the charity and blood cancers within universities and their local communities.

For example, it organised the Spit and Save a life campaign[10] in 2010 which featured Devaanshi Mehta (1996–2012), an aplastic anemia patient.

During the campaign donors could join the registry and find out if they could save a life by simply giving a sample of their saliva.
