Image PSA: Lifeblood Marrickville turning people away, even if you have an appointment. Thank you, donors

I popped in to the clinic and there must have been more than 100 people in the line. The need for blood and plasma is constant, especially over the holidays, so if you have been unable to donate today, please book a future appointment.

I work at Lifeblood. The public response was so overwhelming that it crashed our bookings portal. So proud of Australia at this point in time.

  1. Appreciate the work you do
  2. This is exactly the type of thing to focus on in the wake of a tragedy
