Fundraising

Hi, I'm Hannah, and I'm here to help you fundraise!

Whether you'd like a collection box, a place at a running event, or just someone to talk your ideas through - that's what I'm here for. 

Whether you're fundraising as a thank you to our team, in memory of a loved one, or to support someone who's recently been diagnosed - everyone's needs are different. So do get in touch for a chat - I'd love to hear from you.

This year, The Aplastic Anaemia Trust are raising money to fund our support and information services, create new nurses' training to help healthcare professionals to care for rare bone marrow failure patients, and fund the TIARA trial at Kings - trialling a brand new Treg treatment for aplastic anaemia. You can make these things happen!

Email me at [email protected] or call 07849691356.

Why Your Legacy Matters: Building a Future Free from Aplastic Anaemia

For over 40 years, we’ve been working to change the story for people affected by aplastic anaemia.

We're recently launched a free Will writing service, we’re asking: What will your legacy be? Read more
