Kevin Kararwa Leukaemia Trust

Kevin Kararwa Leukaemia Trust We create awareness, educate, engage and offer support to those suffering from leukaemia and other blood cancers.


“Anyone can be a hero”

Since being established in 2015, KKLT has sought to engage with BAME (black & minority ethnic communities to raise awareness of Leukaemia, educate and inform the community about Stem Cell Donation (commonly known as bone marrow donation), and encourage individuals to join the stem cell registry. Our aim is to increase the number of potential stem cell donors in the registry thus increasing BME com

munity’s survival rates. We have done this through delivering presentations, distributing information leaflets, use of social media, organising events, seeking speaking opportunities in various BAME community gatherings, and partnering with places of worship to talk and holding registration drives. More recently we have started to expand our services to include the distribution of food parcels and provide emotional and physical support to people with blood cancers and their families, thus reducing their isolation/loneliness and increasing their emotional and mental well-being.

A simple decision in 2019 changed a life years later. Matt Wilkinson joined a stem cell register while at university and six years later, he became the match that helped save a stranger thousands of miles away.

Ruslana Camilleri was diagnosed with leukaemia as a child and survived. Like many young cancer patients, her life suddenly became focused on hospital visits, treatment and recovery.
As young adult she is highlighting how Leukaemia can affect far more than a child's physical health. How it can disrupt education, limit social interactions, impact confidence, and place a significant strain on mental and emotional well-being. Many survivors face ongoing challenges as they rebuild their lives, catch up on missed opportunities, and adapt to the lasting effects of their illness and treatment.
