Blood donors urgently needed for session in Hull

Blood donors are urgently needed to fill two upcoming sessions in Hull.

The sessions are:

  • Hull Community Church, 310 Newland Avenue, Hull, on Monday 11 July, which is only 65% full
  • The Dug Out, MKM Stadium, The Circle, Walton St, Hull, on Friday 15 July, which is only 52% full

You can make an appointment at www.blood.co.uk, by calling 0300 123 23 23 or by downloading the NHS Give Blood app. 

Blood stock levels around the country have fallen as a result of higher cancellations due to illness and the annual drop in donations over summer, when people are busy with holidays and events.

Donors with O positive are particularly needed. Donors of all other types are welcome, especially O and B negative.

Hospitals are continuing to receive all the blood they need but more donations are urgently needed to ensure stocks do not fall further.
