NUH Life

NUH Life is a sperm donation centre for the East Midlands. Set up in the 1970s, Nottingham was one of the first sperm banks in the country.

Over the years, many NHS sperm banks have had to close due to uncertainties surrounding laws on donation and the struggle to find willing donors – but Nottingham has effectively maintained a small but successful sperm donation bank ever since. We’ve recently relocated to a brand new, purpose-designed facility on the QMC campus, now known as NUH Life. We’re not a commercial sperm bank and we don’t make any profit – any surplus income is fed straight back into NUH. We don’t just do sperm donation! We also do all initial male diagnostic testing for those trying to conceive, post-vasectomy follow-up, and we run the regional sperm storage facility for men undergoing sterilising cancer treatments. We’re a small team of professionals – which means anyone coming in will get to know us all pretty quickly. Our team is friendly, approachable and creates a welcoming environment for anyone visiting.

New year, new habits? Here’s one you probably didn’t expect: taking better care of your health can also make you a stronger s***m donor candidate 🍎

Things like sleep, exercise, hydration and diet all improve s***m quality – and donor screening gives you a detailed look at your reproductive health that most men never see.

A resolution that actually gives something back. Apply to be a donor.

Buddy is learning how we split the s***m sample up into ‘straws’, so that one sample can be used for multiple treatments. Small tubes, big impact.
