Everyone should donate blood, if they are able, obviously ther are a few people who are not able to donate, so the rest of us should step up for them.! About 5 years ago, I needed an operation which then required me to receive four units of blood. Only 3 were available in the entire hospital, which meant I took a lot longer to recover. This is the easiest thing to donate, and costs you nothing, just an hour of your time, every three months. Can you think of a reason why you should not donate??

I have a 18 year old daughter that started donating blood recently at school where she would go to the bloodbank instead of doing sport.I think this is a good way to get people started with donating blood.As a mum I was embarrased that my daughter was donating blood so I applied.Unfortunately due to a Medical condition and am having injections I was denied giving blood.AT least I tried and very proud of my young daughter
