ANTHONY NOLAN TRUST

Early day motion 1658, tabled 10 October 2018 by Jim Shannon (DUP). Signed by 36 members.

That this House notes the tremendous work undertaken by the charity Anthony Nolan in providing the Anthony Nolan register which matches potential stem donors with those who need it most; further notes the need for more men aged 16 to 30 of all ethnicities to register as a donor given that they make up 16 per cent of the current donor register, while providing 50 per cent of donations; thanks the charity for the wonderful work that it does to give patients a chance of life; and sincerely urges young people between the age of 16 and 30 to get in touch with Anthony Nolan to register for stem cell donation.
