'It felt like we were family!’ Luke recently got to meet Priska, the woman whose life he saved five years ago when he donated his stem cells. ‘I was nervous, but Luke just came over and gave me a big hug’ Priska says. 🥰 Who doesn’t love a feel-good story on a Wednesday? 💚

The man of the hour (well, past several hours!) himself! We hope your mentions haven't been too chaotic, Sam! We're so proud of you! 💚
Thanks for the recognition @GaryLineker & thanks for all the wonderful messages off everyone! I’m glad @AnthonyNolan are getting more exposure so hopefully more people sign up to their register & give others a chance at life. The procedure went well and I’m now recovering 👍

Shout out to this epic team who raised £3,105 doing the Jurassic Coast Challenge - enough to add 77 potential donors to the register! They took on the challenge, both as a fitness challenge and to raise vital funds, as James had a transplant after being diagnosed with ALL💚🖤
