Monday - DO not forget to join the bone marrow register in memory of Nathan Hancock, of Skegness, today, Monday.
The Anthony Nolan Trust is holding a session at the Embassy Centre, in Grand parade, Skegness, from 4-8pm.

The session was originally organised as part of an appeal launched to help Nathan, 22, find a bone marrow match but he died on November 9.

He had been fighting an extremely rare form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

It was Nathan's wish for the campaign to continue after his death so it could help others in a similar situation.

There is an urgent need for as many people as possible to become a bone marrow donor because the more people who do, the everyone's chance of finding a match shoudl they ever need it.

There are 16,000 people worldwide who currently need a transplant.

To find out how you can make the difference between life and death, go along this evening for a chat with the staff. To join you are simply required to give a small blood sample.
