Hello guys and gals,
It struck me a few days ago that I have never donated my blood. There is no real reason for this - I simply haven't looked into doing it or set aside the time.
It's clear that giving blood is only a good thing and can potentially save lives. Accordingly, I popped onto the National Blood Service's website and looked for some information. I was able to request an appointment less than a mile away in under 3 minutes. How easy was that!
Since it's such an easy thing to do that can have such a positive impact, I'd thought I'd create this thread to encourage people to donate some blood themselves. There must be many of you, like me, who have no real objections to doing so yet just haven't made the effort. Well, today is that day to be productive and sign up!

Let's see how many people from OCUK we can get to pledge their blood by requesting an appointment.
