If someone has a blood cancer, such as leukaemia, the only chance of saving their life could be a stem cell transplant. But those stem cells have to come from someone with a matching tissue type, which, if you are Jewish, is far more likely to be from someone who is also Jewish.

Every year, there are over 1,000 Jewish people around the world who need an unrelated stem cell donor to save their life. There is now an urgent need to regularly replenish the stock of Jewish stem cell donors on the national register.

It takes literally a few minutes to be swabbed, and you could make a lifesaving difference if you are a match. Indeed, one of our Swab Squad recruits donated their stem cells to a patient last month.

For those who do not feel comfortable attending an in-person recruitment drive, the good news is that it is very simple to order a swab kit online.
