Rian was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) when he was 14.
A year later, he needed a stem cell transplant. Thankfully Anthony Nolan was able to find a donor for him.
Rian chats with Clare about how he deals with fear, and how his cancer and transplant shaped what he does today as an acclaimed public speaker and aspiring author.
Brad had a stem cell transplant to treat Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) in 2018.
He explains to Clare how his personal experience led him to set up Alike.org.uk, a community dedicated to combating loneliness among people diagnosed with cancer.
Dr Jonathan Kay, Anthony Nolan's Science Communications Manager, explains why clinical trials are so important in stem cell transplant and what will happen to you and your treatment if you decide to join a trial.
Georgie tells us what helped her through her transplant, including her time in hospital isolation.
She also explains how she regained her body confidence after treatment and how blogging (and her pet pugs) helped her recovery.

Anna Esslemont had a stem cell transplant in 2006 when she was 23 years old to treat her Very Severe Aplastic Anaemia. Now 10 years post transplant, we talk to her about living with Chronic GvHD and how her love of music helped in her recovery. Anna also performs a beautiful song that she wrote for her unrelated donor found on the Anthony Nolan register.
In the latest episode we spoke to Teenage Cancer Trust Lead Nurse, Lottie Weston about her role supporting young adult and teen transplant recipients at the Royal Marsden NHS Trust.
