Photo of my arm lying on a table, showing a plaster over my blood donation site, next to an Orange Club and a cup of drink. There is also a rainbow heart sticker
Mmm, chocolate style flavoured coating approximation (but hopefully my blood is actually real and can help someone!)🩸💉🅾️➖ #65 #GiveBlood #NHSBT
After a failed donation last week (my vein ran away from the needle) I went to try again today. This time they got the needle into my vein but it immediately started leaking under my skin, so another failed attempt.
Keep trying.

Thanks to NTCG Brixton for hosting us on November 23rd to share the Sickle Cell Society's work and raise SCD awareness. Grateful to Bishop Mullings, Doreen Dias, Rev Sheila Bernard, and NHSBT for running the blood drive. ❤️🩸 #SickleCellSociety #NHSBT #NTCG #BloodDonation
Photo of my arm and lap, with a plaster on the inside of my elbow, holding a plastic cup of squash and on my lap is a packet of Ready Salted Seabrook's and an Orange Club chocolate biscuit
#64 is a power of two, so I am fortifying myself with the power of two post-donation snacks (obviously, Orange Club and ready salted Seabrooks, the best snacks). #GiveBlood #NHSBT
My husband donating blood
Only 2% of the UK population donate blood. Here’s my husband donating. Unfortunately I can’t but please, if you can, go give some blood.

On #WorldBloodCancerDay please consider donating blood to help people like Maurice who need regular transfusions to survive.
As it is, only 3% of those in the UK who could donate, do donate. Could you?

I've stopped donating blood, the local Donor centre has behaved very lax manner with no mask mandate #NHSBT
My endocrinologist is trying to persuade me to have an op, my reluctance is mainly due to the lack of mask mandate in hospital. #NewcastleHosps
Donation #88 today.
If you can, get your arm out and give blood. You might just save a stranger who you'll never meet

There's no flattering way to take a selfie in a donation chair, but please give blood if you are able to in your country. It's incredibly important.

After a 1 month leave of absence, I finally managed to successfully donate 700ml of plasma. A wonderful way to lose 1.5 lbs.

'Give blood', they said...
Wish me luck getting this thing off later!

Thinking about donating blood? Do it! You’ll get lovely messages like this: “Thank you so much for donating on 6-Nov. Your donation has now been issued to Churchill Hospital Oxford. Every donation counts.”
