For women in Scotland to be able to donate their umbilical cord for cancer cures

Petition Details

I am a pregnant lady living in Scotland who has lost a lot of people to cancer, I even had a preventative mastectomy at age 29, I heard of umbilical cord donation and called to find out if I could donate only to be told just 4 hospitals in England can donate, Scotland should have this choice too

Additional Information

Anthony Nolan Trust only take umbilical cords in 1 hospital in Manchester, 1 in London and 2 in Leicester this could potentially help so many cancer sufferers out there and you can help
