Thank you fundraisers

Thank you to Eleanor and the stranger who bought her a pair of shoes

A complete stranger bought Eleanor a new pair of running trainers so she could keep running while her son is in hospital. With the one condition that she paid forward the sentiment by fundraising for a charity of her choice.

She ran 100km around a hospital throughout May and raised over £500. 

Thank you to this incredible group of people.

Well done and thank you to this amazing group who took part in a 15km Tough Mudder and raised over £3000. 

Thank you so much

Thank you to all our Super Rare supporters

Thank you to everyone who took part in our super rare campaign. Throughout March and April you raised over £23,000 which we will use this year to uncover more detail about the response to Covid-19 vaccines in people with aplastic anaemia, and investigate new treatment options, that could offer hope to more people, and improve quality of life for patients and their families.

So many of you got involved;

• 18 of you signed up to donate monthly – which means we have a fantastic £140 extra every month that will help us to provide support to people who need it.
• 87 of you joined us on the 5^th March for a walk. We had people walking up in Scotland right down to Cornwall!
• 20 of you have signed up to our 2022 fundraising events - including several people already bracing themselves for our 2022 Santa Splash - this year taking place in England, Wales AND Scotland!
• Over 30 of you have done your own fundraising throughout February and March. We’ve had people cycling, running, baking, shaving their heads, swimming, squatting and online gaming.

Thank you walkers

On the 11th December, 70 of you joined us to walk the Winter Windsor Walk. It was so lovely to see so many of you there and meet you all. 

Thank you so much.

Thank you William

What absolute stars William and Evie are. 

William, aged 6, set himself a challenge, to cycle a very impressive 26 miles. Not only did William smash the challenge but he was joined by his incredible big sister Evie, who has recently had a bone marrow transplant. 

This fantastic duo also smashed their fundraising target and raised over £10,000 for The Aplastic Anaemia Trust, Anthony Nolan and DKMS.

Well done and thank you to you both, you are amazing.

Alex walked from London to Brighton, that's in 64 miles (103km) in 24 hours and 20 minutes. That's 127,080 steps in 1 day.

Thank you so much Alex. We hope your feet start to recover soon. 

Thank you to our 'Together walk' walkers

A big thank you to all the walkers who helped create a feeling of togetherness and community even though we weren't able to be together in person.

Also a big thank you to Ros and Becky for leading two great sessions in the morning to get us ready for our walk.

Together we raised over £3,000. Amazing.

Emily's Wicked to the West End raised over 38,000 Euros for The Aplastic Anaemia Trust and Anthony Nolan. Just Incredible.
