This organisation aims to provide practical and home help, counselling, advice and moral support to Black people who suffer from leukaemia and other related illnesses.
The Trust aims to:
- Raise awareness in the Black, Asian and ethnic minority community, enabling potential donors to come forward and be involved in the process of offering hope and a healthy future to someone whose disease may otherwise prove fatal. The likelihood is that finding a matching donor is considerably greater in donors from the same ethnic background.
- Support and assist Black people and people of mixed parentage suffering from leukaemia and any other bone marrow related illnesses such as aplastic anaemia.
- Educate the public about the needs for better services of people suffering from leukaemia or any other bone marrow diseases.
The Trust also hosts 'Bone Marrow Registration Drives' throughout the UK.
