We need new blood donors from all backgrounds to ensure there is the right blood available for patients who need it.
Donated blood or components are given to a patient in a blood transfusion. Blood transfusions are given via an intravenous line into a blood vessel.
Usage varies between hospitals depending on their particular specialties.
We work closely with hospitals to make sure valuable blood donations are used appropriately.
The demand for blood from hospitals has fallen due to increased efficiency, but new donors are always needed to make sure there is enough blood to treat those who need it.
Blood can be vital for people with medical conditions or who are having surgery. But blood transfusions can also improve the quality of life for people whose illness has no cure.
