Blood Donation Service

The University is currently unable to host blood donation sessions for the National Blood Service, because of lack of suitable facilities that meet the strict health and safety requirements of the service.

To find out if you can be a blood donor or where your nearest session is, ring 0845 7 711 711 or view the National Blood Service website.

Staff who have been accepted by the Blood Service are generally able to donate blood three times a year, so do check out your local sessions.
