We offer parents-to-be the opportunity of storing their baby's umbilical cord blood stem cells in our dual private and public stem cell storage bank after their baby's birth. These amazing cells can be used to provide valuable treatments today, and may offer the possibility of regenerative medicine in the future for your baby and your family.
At Virgin Health Bank, we understand that your priority is the health of your family. That's why it's really important for you to know that, in your child's early years; their own stem cells are unlikely to help if they fell ill - they'd need healthy, donated cells - which is why we’ve designed an exciting new service for banking your baby's cord blood stem cells.

Stem cells
Stem cells are already used today for some debilitating illnesses, but there is a worldwide shortage of matched stem cells available for transplantation to people who need them. In addition, many scientists and doctors passionately believe, as do we, that in the future stem cells may be used to treat many more diseases through something called ‘regenerative medicine’. Stem cell storage could therefore be of benefit today, and in the future.
Virgin Health Bank stores your baby's cord blood stem cells in a private bank holding your baby's stem cells just for them and your family, and a public bank. Our public bank will help anyone needing donated stem cells - including your family. We believe that this dual private and public bank offers more benefits to more people - it increases the availability of cord blood stem cells for treatments today and offers you and your family the prospect of access to regenerative medicine in the future should it ever be needed.
