'Marrow' is a national, student-led branch of the Anthony Nolan Charity. Exeter Marrow is one of the many university marrow groups across the country. We have three primary aims: 1) To recruit young, healthy people to the stem cell donation register 2) Raise vital funds that go towards first class research and maintenance of the stem cell register 3) Raise awareness of blood cancer and rare blood disorders.
Our main aims:
1) Raise awareness of the stem cell donation register and to encourage young, healthy people to sign up- so few people actually understand stem cell donation. Most people never get called up to donate. But, it might just be that the one person who sign's up at a uni freshers fayre could be a match for someone like themselves in need of a life-saving transplant. The more people signed up, the greater the chance we have at finding everyone in need of a match their lifesaver.
2) Raise money in aid of the Anthony Nolan Charity- As mentioned, we are a student-led branch of the Anthony Nolan Charity- a charity dedicated to saving the lives of those with blood cancer and rare blood disorders.
3) Raise awareness of blood cancer and rare blood disorders.
