Increase awareness and promotion of bone marrow and stem cell donation

Closed 225 signatures

What the petition asks

U.K. Bone marrow donation processes are not widely promoted or advertised. The only way you can currently do this is via blood donation. Increase awareness of the process and promote it more to save lives
During blood donation bone marrow donation should be promoted and encouraged. Education on how bone marrow is donated needs to be done as many people do not understand how easy this is. Make it easier for people to go on the bone marrow donation register
