365 days of the year we deliver blood and plasma to the Great North Air Ambulance Service on an evening - Blood on Board.

We also offer a resupply service during the day should they require additional units of blood. Today such a call came through to committee on call requesting a resupply. Within minutes of the call a volunteer was on route to complete the job.

Today we’ve been celebrating #BloodBikeDay but we’re also celebrating the amazing donation of £885 from Durham Easter Egg Run. Thank you for this donation to our charity. We really appreciate the Egg Run community’s continued support and welcoming us each year! 

Our heartfelt condolences go out to all the Blood Bikes Wales team and the loved ones of the Blood Bike rider who has tragically lost his life whilst on shift. Your extended Blood Bike family is thinking of you all during this difficult time.
