Last term, our students learned that they could save a life, just by being their unique selves. They had a Hero Project visit from Anthony Nolan, the charity that matches people with blood cancers and blood disorders to incredible strangers willing to donate their stem cells. We’re so proud that 77 of our students made the decision to become potential lifesavers.![]()
The Hero Project is a free programme that educates 16 to 18-year-olds about stem cell, blood, and organ donation. Younger donors offer better survival rates for patients, meaning young people have the power to save a life. They can also build valuable skills as Student Champions, helping to educate their peers on donation.![]()
