Giving Blood

Last week, I went to the blood donor centre in Bradford to see the work they do.

I’m a big supporter of the campaign to get more people across the city to give blood because of the huge demand every day.

If you want to get involved visit www.blood.co.uk – I’d really encourage you to think about helping save lives.
