SGUL Marrow

St George’s Marrow Society is restarting and we are hosting our first donor recruitment event this Thursday!

We are a network of student volunteers that recruit new donors to the Anthony Nolan stem cell register and raise lifesaving funds.

Every 14 minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with a blood cancer. A stem cell transplant from a stranger – someone like YOU - can be their only hope.

So come chat to us in the Alastair Hunter room 11am-3pm to learn more about stem cell donation and sign up to become a potential lifesaver!

we are advertising for new committee members for the new academic year!!! If you’d like to be part of a rewarding society and get a chance to meet great individuals and friends for life, click through the link in our bio to apply!! We will keep the link open for a week (so you have until 5/9/2023 to apply)!!!! Open to everyone 💙💙💙

We’re back and better than ever with another Valentine’s Day Rose Delivery service! Want to share your love with that special someone but not sure how? Want to surprise your friends with some sweet treats to get them through placement/studying? Want to also simultaneously be donating money to charity? Look no further! We will be posted outside the library AND outside peabodies on Valentine’s day, ready to take your orders and deliver roses/doughnuts/cupcakes to whoever you desire. If you’d like to get ahead of the game, you can click on the link in our bio to pre-order. All proceeds will be donated to Anthony Nolan and the British Heart Foundation in collaboration with !!!

Finishing off the year with more amazing donors on the register! So grateful for everyone’s commitment and we look forward to seeing you all in the new year for more events!

‘Tis the season of giving!!🎄

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Monday for our first bake sale this year! We were able to raise a staggering amount of almost £330 for Anthony Nolan. All of the money raised will be donated to the charity to fund research and to allow them to keep doing all of the amazing work that they do!

We are back again with another swab clinic, but this time it is Christmas themed🎅🏼 Pop along to learn more about us and become a potential lifesaver!!
We can’t wait to see you all!
🎄🎄🎄

There’s no better way to spread the holiday spirit than through some food… join us next Monday for some delicious baked goods (we’ll have a huge variety on display) for Marrowmas!! Enjoying a cupcake (or two ☺️) feels so much better when you’re helping raise money for charity… we look forward to seeing you there! 💙

Following recent events and the open letter from SGUL Pride, SGUL Marrow would like to offer our unwavering support for our fellow colleagues in the LGBTQ+ community.

At Marrow, we are Proud lifesavers, and we stand with everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, race, religion, or gender identity. Marrow, alongside our parent organisation Anthony Nolan, strongly believes in an inclusive society where no one faces any discrimination. We will continue to be an ally for our wonderful colleagues and stand against any form of abuse.

Our first swab clinic of the year was scarily good (did we mention it was a halloween clinic?). A massive thank you to our lovely volunteers who made yesterday possible - we appreciate every single one of you. We managed to get 48 people to sign up - the first 48 of many this year! Keep your eyes peeled for future events and announcements 🎃🎃👻👻

Thank you to everyone that attended the volunteer training day yesterday! We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow for the swab clinic!

Following our volunteer training day, we have our first swab clinic of the year!
