Today marks World Blood Donor Day, a time to thank voluntary blood donors for their lifesaving gift while also raising awareness of the need for safe blood and blood products.
Every minute of every day, hospitals across the world request blood stocks.
Currently, the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood needs further supplies of O-, O+ and A+ blood, however, regardless of your blood type, donation is vital to keep sufficient blood stocks.
Today’s “ok” supply could be tomorrow’s “very low” so why not consider donating today?
