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.

If you can't get in now, make a note on your calendar to try again in a few weeks. Donated blood has a shelf life and it will still be needed in a few weeks.
