Do something amazing - give blood!
30 Oct 2009
Donate on North Campus on 9 November
The National Blood Service will be running a donor session on the North Campus on:
- Monday 9 November (10am-12 noon & 2pm-4pm)
The session will be held at:
- Harwood Room, Barnes Wallis Building, Altrincham Street (off Sackville Street)
All university staff are welcome to attend, roll up their sleeves and give a pint of the red stuff.

To make an appointment to donate on Monday, please call:
- 0300 123 23 23
Each donation can go towards saving or improving the lives of up to three people and really does make a massive difference to the lives of others.
The National Blood Service are particularly keen to welcome new and previous donors to come along and donate as they need to ensure they have sufficient stocks of blood during the flu season. Anyone suffering with flu or flu-like symptoms cannot donate temporarily, so if you've always intended to donate and not got round to it, now would be a great time to start!
