Welsh Blood Service 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

🚨Appeal for Blood Donors🚨 Due to the recent hot weather, we have had to make changes to some of our planned donation sessions, meaning blood stocks are now lower than we would like, particularly O positive. Please support us over the next 2 weeks 👉 wbs.wales/app

@RichardLilly Hi Richie, as you donate in England we won't have access to your record and notes. Our platelet team have finished for the day, so we'll check in with them tomorrow :)

@RichardLilly Hi Richie, could you DM us with your donor number, please? We'll be able to have a chat with the clinical team to look into this for you
