We need over 6,000 blood donations every day to treat patients in need across England. Which is why there’s always a need for people to give blood.
Each year we need approximately 200,000 new donors, as some donors can no longer give blood.
Find your local donor centre and book your appointment today.

I'm watching this on my 50th blood and platelet donation
Gave blood on Sept 28, 2018. A week later they messaged me that they used my blood to be transfused at a hospital for a patient. I was soooo happy to hear that my blood benefited someone :)
Yeah i gave blood first time last year in Nottinghamshire. N my blood went to great yarmouth n think about the story n the travel of the blood
@@davidmarchant9386 pretty amazing ain't it??!!! I feel like a hero with no Cape lol .
@@bbsclosetcreations yeah it's incredible :) im up to my 3rd donation now, i wanna just get to 10 soon as possible. Then i feel like a super hero. Sometimes i wish i could just sit at their bedside n give them all the blood they need
@@davidmarchant9386 hahaha that's awesome !!!! My sister had to have one after a mishap. Not knowing that me and her had the same blood type I could have helped her but it took them forever to get blood to her being that she is -o . So after that I believe imma give from here on out .
@@bbsclosetcreations see im a boring a+ im too common
I'm a First responder meaning blood type O- universal donor i have given and i will give more Hallelujah to that cheers
I'm donating tomorrow for the very first time. I hope with my tiny contribution and those at service we can make a difference ✨♥️✨
If you save one life is like you saved all humanity, I made my 1st booking to donate next month, I can't believe I waited until now to do it, I feel guilty.
Nothing makes me feel like I helping other people as much as when I donate blood. It's so easy, yet very personal /special. I really do recommend it to anybody
I'm agree with you. And I don't understand why many people around me especially at my work, don't understand anything about and even think that Is an harmful thing for my body
Wow! Who’d have thought all of this was going on following a blood donation. Definitely an eye opener
I made my 5th donation today 😀
I have just donated today. Feeling happy
As a blood donor myself (B Rh Positive), this is a very interesting video. I never realised just how so much work is done from when the blood is given by the donor prior to being given to the recipient.
Since I donate my blood, I always make a huge difference.
Looks like NHSBT, Filton, Bristol
Do blood banks use the colored blood tubes anywhere in the process?
This is a very old video, we no longer use those packs, those presses, those coats, or the beard/hair covers
I noticed that as well, I haven't seen those old flat uncomfortable lay down "bleed beds" (as we used to call them) since the late 90's.
Donating a pint of blood reduces blood volume, which results in a decrease in blood pressure (just as air pressure in a tire decreases as air is let out of the tire) What effect does donating blood have on heart rate?
Never noticed a change in mine.
Slight increase in heart rate after but your body adjusts to the new level quickly
and how do I get the volume of my blood back after donation ?
Your body will restore your blood volume (plasma) within 48 hours. It will take 4 to 8 weeks to restore your red blood cells.
@@Yaya-bananas so the body knows there is a deficit in blood volume after you donate blood?
@@gloria6498 Yes
Does your body replace hemoglobin and all the other cells in your blood ?
Hemoglobin is a protein bound to your red blood cells. The more iron you consume, the more hemoglobin your body can make. Just eat healthy - lots of iron rich foods and water, and you should be fine.
Every time I go to the hospital, they keep asking me to have blood tests🙄. I had to give 4 tubes of my blood. Never saw them again, I can only assume all my blood was poured down the drain🤔🤔.
That’s doubtful. The NHS only usually notify you of a blood result if it’s a problem, if it’s normal they often don’t tell you.
Also, that’s different to donating - your blood tests will have been to check different levels indicating whether you’re healthy and well. Giving blood is when healthy people voluntarily donate their blood to be used for sick people who need it.
