Inflation is getting out of hand, the going rate for a pint of blood is now two pieces of cake and a packet of mini cheddars. https://www.blood.co.uk/ #GiveBlood #DonateBlood

They talked me into a “power red” donation today. Two units of red blood cells in one go. https://www.redcrossblood.org/donate-blood/how-to-donate/types-of-blood-donations/power-red-donation.html

Now I can’t donate again for a longer period, but I guess the logic is economic: “a unit in hand today is worth more than the promise of a unit later.”

Happy to give. If you’re eligible, please consider it!

I'm off to give blood for the first time ever shortly. I lived in the UK in 1986 and I've never been able to donate until now.
I am trying not to think too hard about it. I hope it's something I will be able to do regularly from now on.

Haven't been able to donate blood for a while, but back in today. And that was after taking the cats to have their annual check up and vax.

You can only donate 24 times in one rolling year and I maxxed out, so the Red Cross says I have to wait until late May to start again

I can't be alone, please do what you can

There's a pretty major blood shortage ever since the pandemic started. Today I did my part to help.
You should sign up too! (If eligible)

oh yay! Was just reminded I have a blood donor appointment today! It's been too long since I got my fill of little orange juice boxes and digestive cookies! 🍪 Anyone else out there a regular donor? This will be my 33rd.

The NHS staff taking blood at Trinity at Bowes community centre are excellent as always.

Today was my tenth blood donation since I was able to start giving blood here in Australia last July. They gave me a badge that I'll wear with pride ❤️

Only Mint Club and no Orange Club available today so I've opted for the Fruit Shortcake (but they did have the good stickers!) 💉🅾️➖🩸

Donation time again. Amazing that a year ago I wasn't allowed to donate because of the foot and mouth crisis in the UK during 1990s. Now I'm up to 9 donations.

...still don't like it 😂

It's that time again. Doing something I don't like because it's the right thing to do.

If giving blood scares you, you're not alone but the thought of saving a life outweighs that fear for me 🙂

I’m not a boastful or bragging type, so I hope this doesn’t come across that way.

Been to give blood today. Being in the UK we don’t get paid for it, nor would I accept money anyway.

Glad to be able to help others by doing so and would encourage anyone who is on the fence about doing so to try.

It’s not a fun outing (other than the post donation chocolate) but it is one that if you’re able to make a big difference to others.
