Blood stocks in the South East are at a comfortable level but we would like to encourage more people who have yet to give blood to do so now. The demand for blood is never ending and there is currently a need for 7,000 units of blood in England and North Wales every day.
Donated blood is used to save the lives of sick and injured people. Not only can blood be used in accident and emergency situations but it is also used for patients undergoing surgery and receiving treatment for cancer and other blood diseases.
There are more than 250,000 active donors in the South East but each year some donors cannot donate due to travel or ill-health and the need for blood is constant.
Please give blood at your local venue: Majestic House, Blatchford Road, Horsham. RH13 3QR
The next sessions are: Friday 14th December 2012
Sunday 30th December 2012
