The NHS has urged people in England to give blood as figures show blood stocks are running low after high demand during the festive period.
Blood is used by the NHS to treat patients with cancer, blood disorders, or undergoing surgery. Emergency care mostly requires O negative blood. Dr Jo Farrar, chief executive at NHS Blood and Transplant, said: “New Year is a time when lots of people make resolutions. Make giving blood your resolution for 2025 and you will save up to three lives every time you donate.
“Giving blood is quick and easy - the whole process takes just one hour. Book an appointment today and save lives this year.”
