Stocks of the main Rh Negative blood groups are under particular pressure, especially O negative which is considered the universal blood group and is always in demand.
“It has been a very tough 15 months for everyone but as hospitals increase their levels of activity, the demand for blood is as great as ever and we are urging donors, especially those with Rh Negative blood groups, to make an appointment to give blood over the summer months. “If you receive a text message from us, please respond to the number provided to make an appointment.”
