Over the last 30 years, The Anthony Nolan Trust has grown from the personal crusade of one mother to become a world leader in the field of tissue type analysis and tissue transplant technology.
Although Shirley’s quest could not keep her son alive, The Anthony Nolan Trust has given over 5,800 children and adults the gift of life since the charity was founded over 30 years ago.
Our pioneering role has continually placed this Charity at the forefront of developments in tissue transplantation and bone marrow register management. The Anthony Nolan Trust continues to evolve - to ensure it is doing everything possible to maximise the survival chances of anyone needing a bone marrow transplant.
