I enjoyed a lovely bike ride along the river in the sun from Kingston to Twickenham (and very steadily back too) for this month's plasma donation. Giving blood / plasma always leaves me with an enormous sense of well-being. The sunshine helped too :)

Giving blood saves lives. The blood you give is a lifeline in an emergency and for people who need long-term treatments. We need new blood donors from all backgrounds to ensure there is the right blood available for patients who need it. We need: - 4,300 blood donations every day on average to meet the needs of our hospitals - over 140,000 people to donate blood for the first time this year - 12,000 new Black heritage donors, to meet the growing demand for ethnically matched blood for sickle cell patients who need regular transfusions to stay alive - more young people aged 17-35 to donate, to ensure we have enough blood for the future
