In February 2016, we published a guide to help parents to make informed choices about cord blood banking. The guide was launched in response to a survey conducted by the HTA in 2014, which revealed a clear need for more information on banking cord blood. The guide, which offers information about donating cord blood to a public bank and banking cord blood privately, was developed in collaboration with clinicians, consultants, and other experts in this area.
You can find a link to the guide here.
To help us make sure our guide is helpful and contains the information that is important to you, we want to hear from anyone has either already banked cord blood in a public or private bank, or would consider doing so in the future.
We also want to hear from people who have read or come across our guide before and to let us know whether you found it helpful. Your feedback will help us understand how much parents now know about cord blood banking and help us ensure the guidance we share sets out what is involved and what it might mean for you and your child in the future.
You can share your feedback by filling out this short survey before 15 September 2017.
