Staff at Dobbies, Ponteland, chose Northumbria Blood Bikes as their charity of the year for 2016 and 2017. Throughout 2016 colleagues at the store welcomed Northumbria Blood Bike volunteers into their store and through the generosity of their customers successfully raised enough money to bike a new addition to the charities fleet.

The results have been announced for The Evening Chronicle Wish Tokens. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to our total of 36,416 tokens. For our first year of taking part we are over the moon that we made it into the top 10 and we will receive £437.31 share of the total.

Your support is greatly appreciated! 

Staff at Greggs, Balliol Park Industrial Estate, chose Northumbria Blood Bikes as their charity of the year for 2016. The colleagues have raised enough to fuel the charities full fleet for one month. This will enable Northumbria Blood Bikes to complete around 1,000 jobs they receive every month.

Yesterday Northumbria Blood Bikes transported human milk for the first time, taking part in a 260 mile relay that involved 5 Blood Bike groups across the country. The whole run was carried out by unpaid volunteers, who give their time freely to help make a difference to the lives of others.
