Over 100 young leaders from across Northern Ireland and Ireland have been selected for the Washington Ireland Program’s largest-ever Class, which launches today, June 3.
A trainee doctor from Aghyaran has given an anonymous blood cancer patient in the UK a ‘last chance at life’ by making a stem cell donation.
Declan Browne is currently in his foundation year of entering the profession and working at the South West Acute Hospital in Enniskillen, but recently made the trip to London to make the potentially life-saving donation.
Having signed up to the stem cell register via the Anthony Nolan foundation while he was studying at Queen’s University Belfast, Declan told the UH there was a high possibility of never being called to donate. However, he received the call to say he was a potential match for an ill patient early last year.
