Originally set up to find a match for Gary Stevens’ young son. Now were here to educate and inform fans about the need for more ppl to reg as stem cell donors.
This account was set up to help find a matching, lifesaving stem cell donor for Gary Stevens’ young son.Sadly that didn’t happen😢 As we approach the end of the year, I’d love to know how many of you have joined @AnthonyNolan or @DKMS_uk. IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO HELP SOMEONE ELSE 💙
Following the fundraising update from @DKMS_uk last week, @AnthonyNolan kindly sent us this digital certificate celebrating the fact that you’ve helped us to raise in excess of £5000 for them too💙
Considering that fundraising comes 2nd to awareness, we’re incredibly grateful 💙

After our recent donation, @DKMS_uk kindly sent us this to share 💙
We imagine that we’ve donated a very similar amount to @AnthonyNolan so if it’s over £10k then we are genuinely blown away by your consistent & continued support.
Without you, we be 1 Blue Against Blood Cancer
The MOST COMMON CANCER in children and teens. It affects thousands of families, yet it isn't talked about nearly enough.
The #CLFamily is working to change that. Will you help?
🔄 Share this post, spread awareness, and bring us closer to a cure.
A quick reminder that if you haven't yet added your details to the stem cell register it is free to do and could be the single most important thing you ever do in your life.
Give @DKMS_uk a follow and click on the link in their bio.
You could, quite frankly, be a real lifesaver.
I have spent the last several years pushing a website that sells merchandise and gives all of the profits away to good causes.
At times the online shop never had a visitor let alone made a sale.
I bore some of you with the @ClubMerchandise posts but it's a passion project tat struggles for any exposure.
I tweet a few things about City and #115 and over 500,000 have engaged with those posts in some way.
If only they would engage with the fundraising ones like that 😉
Every 27 seconds, someone is diagnosed with blood cancer.
That's 3,200 people every day.
This Blood Cancer Awareness Month, the #CLFamily has been raising awareness of one of the biggest, yet least talked about, cancers.
But for the thousands diagnosed each day, awareness doesn't end when the month does. The conversation must continue. ❤️ 🔄

Today I have written to the head of the UK Football Policing Unit after its disgraceful attempt to link alcohol with the Hillsborough disaster following the Prime Minister’s call to ease restrictions at football matches.
Alcohol did not cause Hillsborough. The behaviour of supporters did not cause or contribute to the disaster.
These are the authoritative, factual conclusions of the inquests and the independent investigations. They are not matters of opinion.
Thirty-seven years on, when will policing authorities finally accept the truth and stop perpetuating the lies and smears created in the aftermath of the disaster?
Enough is enough.

Surprised by the negative reaction to @andyburnham ‘s plan to allow a beer at the match.
Been to games in Germany and it just makes the whole process easier.
Get a pint, drink it throughout the first half. Get another at HT and repeat. Saves people chugging it down.
I’m all in
Today’s challenge:
Send one friend this message:
“Have you ever thought about joining the stem cell register?”
Start the conversation. 💙
Send them here to register dkms.org.uk/get-involved/vir…#StemCellDonor
Imagine being 16 years old, excited to start your A-levels, enjoying time with friends, and looking forward to the future. You've never heard of leukaemia, let alone realised it would soon turn your world upside down.
🎧 NEW episode now live on Spotify, Amazon Podcasts, and YouTube.
If someone you love needed a stem cell transplant, you’d hope a matching donor was out there.
Help be that hope for someone else. 💙

I've been a blood donor. Orh- for years . I'm a registered organ donor (my loved ones are aware). And had seen some TV coverage and the pop up in Liverpool 1 at the weekend.
