Why I volunteer…

“A friend of mine volunteered for a blood bike group in the South of England and hearing about what he was involved with and the role he played in their group really interested me so I searched to see if there was something similar local to me and I discovered NBB.

Why I volunteer…

“I heard about the charity through a friend who volunteers for another Blood Bike group in the South West.

We are both keen motorcyclists and are also keen to give to charity. What a great idea to do both. I have always admired volunteers and their dedication to a cause. I joined in March 2024 and became a rider for the first time in the October.

Why I volunteer…

I heard about Northumbria Blood Bikes from my wife who works at the RVI and I had seen the team when dropping her off. I have always been a biker and thought I’d check out the website to see what it was all about.

Why I volunteer…

I met up with an old advanced driving tutor friend (Peter M) who I hadn’t seen for a while who introduced me to Northumbria Blood Bikes and I joined in April 2018.

I’m currently a driver, controller and occasionally I’ve attended fundraisers. I have also given a couple of talks to schools.

This week the staff at Bebside Inn proudly presented us with a cheque for £3,286 from their ‘Easter at the Bebby’ fundraising weekend. Our sincerest thanks to them all for their hard work and to everyone who donated. 

It was also a lovely opportunity to get some more photographs of the ‘Bebby’ bike purchased through the funds they have raised by supporting our charity over the years.

*Relay alert*

Today Mark from Shropshire • Staffordshire • Cheshire Blood Bikes picked up 1x FMT samples from Birmingham Medical School and took them to Barlborough Services where they we handed over to Ann from Whiteknights Yorkshire Blood Bikes. They were then transported up to Scotch Corner Services where our volunteer driver Clive was waiting to collect before being delivered to Sunderland Royal Hospital.

All completed completely free of charge for the NHS by Blood Bike volunteers.
