Growing the number of Jewish bone marrow donors

What we do
This charity was set up in memory of Sue Harris who sadly passed in 1997 because a suitable bone marrow match could not be found for her.

We are active in helping to grow the register of possible donors from the Jewish community, as well as supporting medical research in this area.

Our focus now is on recruiting donors aged between 16 and 24 years of age. The process involves completing a medical questionnaire and taking a mouth swab.
