'I hope it gives you a chance of a better life'

A woman from Leicester has donated stem cells to try to save the life of a boy in Germany who has cancer.

Kam Uddin found out she was a match for the poorly child through the donor register of blood cancer charity DKMS.

Cells were taken from her in March, which the charity hopes will help boost the boy's immune system after chemotherapy treatment.

The 39-year-old mother-of-two has spoken about her experience to Ben Jackson in the hope it will help address a shortage of donors from the Asian community.
