2 @thekiltwalk in 2 days. 1x14 miles, 1x23 miles. Feet hurt but every mile was worth it to raise funds for @DKMS_uk to help save lives.

🎥 Watch the heartwarming moment when 8-year-old Jacob meets his lifesaver, Lorna!
At just 19 months old, Jacob was diagnosed with a rare, life-threatening condition. His only hope was a #stemcell donation via an anonymous #DKMS donor.
This is their story. ❤️

Our donor recruitment takes us the length and breadth of the country, but recruiting at Edinburgh Castle is as unique as each donor match found.
Sign up and help save someone who needs their match.

We were thrilled to have @JudithRalston show her support for @DKMS_uk on Sunday. Bridge of Allan games gave stem cell donation a sunny forecast with plenty of new lifesavers being signed up. Thanks to everyone who signed up. Your 5 mins could mean a lifetime ❤️

Adeline & Josie are sisters from #Scotland who share the same genetic condition. Their story has inspired 100s of people to register as #stemcell donors so far.🌈
But sadly, Josie is still searching for her hero. 🦸♀️ Share this post to encourage others to register with #DKMS!

Exciting update: We're delighted to share that baby Francis is showing 100% donor cells in his blood, meaning his body has accepted his #stemcell transplant. 🙌
Thanks to a match found on the register, Francis now has a chance at a future filled with many more milestones. ❤️

Come on folks, do a Martin and register to be a lifesaver!
We need you to register as someone in the world may need you to save their life. It's that simple.

Recently, out of the blue I got a call from @DKMS_uk - the charity that helps people with blood cancer. I'd forgotten that 5yrs ago I did a cheek swab... but the call was to say I was a possible match for someone in urgent need of stem cell or bone marrow transplant.
It's a chance to help someone survive who wouldn't otherwise. Unfortunately, having just been through the next stage, I've been ruled out of donating.
So to turn that into a positive, I wanted to suggest if you fancy registering to be a donor, if age 18 - 55 you can do it here... dkms.org.uk - and hopefully one of you may be the match that actually saves a life.

We all get caught up trying to make the day “perfect”.
Whether that’s buying the best gifts 🎁 or nailing Christmas Dinner 😋
In reality these things don’t matter…. The likelihood is people wouldn’t even notice or mind if you missed something or burnt the Turkey 🍗 😂

Spending time with the people you love is what’s most important at this time of year 🥰
Not everyone gets that privilege! 🥺
In the midst of all the Christmas madness why don’t you register to become a potential stem cell donor and give the gift of life this Christmas 💫
