As #OrganDonation awareness week approaches we would love for our supporters and our volunteers plus their friends and families to join our team for this year’s #raceforrecipients
After an amazing weekend at Stormin the Castle we are delighted to announce donations raised a total of £1114.20. Many thanks to everyone who donated during the event, to the fantastic Stormin team, our team of volunteers who manned our stall and showers and those who took time to speak to us throughout. We hope you’re all home safely and can’t wait to see you again next year!
Our charity is run entirely by volunteers and relies on these volunteers to undertake all tasks. The majority of our operational work is out of hours during unsociable hours overnight and at weekends. They work very closely with our Shift Controllers and use technology to record activities.
We have a fabulous team of speakers who are happy to deliver talks to groups, clubs and schools to explain who we are, what we do and how we do it. They’re even partial to judging the odd cake competition.
We are very proud of our partnership with the Civil Air Support. When items need to be transported across large distances and are time sensitive, we call on our friends in the Civil Air Support to transport via plane.
Our fundraising team are a vital part of our charity and most likely the volunteers you’re likely to meet as they are the public face of our organisation representing us at events and collections. As Northumbria Blood Bikes exists entirely on charitable donations fundraising keeps our fleet on the road.
