About

Raising awareness of Blood Cancers and registering people to the stem cell register

We sign people up to the stem cell register, provide second chances at life for those in need of a transplant, and raise funds to cover donor registration costs. DKMS launched in the UK in 2013. We are the biggest stem cell register in the UK. We have registered over 1 million blood stem cell donors to date and helped to give over 2,500 people a second chance at life. Over 2,000 people each year in the UK need a blood stem cell transplant, however, just 7% of the entire eligible population in the UK are registered as potential donors. Only a tiny proportion of these potential donors are from minority ethnic communities. That’s why we exist. The more people who register as blood stem cell donors, the better the chance for someone in need of a blood stem cell transplant. To date, worldwide, DKMS has registered over 12.5 million potential blood stem cell donors, and over 120,000 second chances at life have been provided by DKMS. We are looking for volunteers to join our South West Hub to run events in the locals area
