Fifth Blood Drive Upcoming

The Generalitat of Catalunya announces its fifth blood drive for next Tuesday, 4th November, at the Barcelona Science Park. A mobile unit will be set up outside the Modular Building (c/ Baldiri Reixac, 10) to collect blood donations. Volunteers can give blood there between 9 am and 2 pm.

The donated blood is used by hospitals and clinics throughout Catalonia in surgery, cancer treatments, organ transplants and blood transfusions for accident victims. According to the Blood and Tissue Bank, maintaining good supplies requires more than 1,000 blood donations a day and reserves are currently at low levels.
