This page is for information related to the UK specifically.

The situation now:
Designated blood donations are usually not done in hospitals anywhere in the UK – there is no free choice of the donor blood. And please note, as clearly stated on our home page at the bottom and below here: There is no place yet in the UK or Ireland, where you can donate uncontaminated blood which is then labeled as such, and there is NO clinic which will allow you to bring your own blood or any other donor of your choice. 10 years ago, yes. Now? Not possible anymore. This is what we go against.
If you hear of such a place, please tell us immediately.

What WE do:
Our acting plans:
We are in the process of setting up a team for the UK, which will try to find the most feasible way to reach our goal, the free choice of blood (and blood donor). This will happen though finding medical partners (hospitals, laboratory chains, private practices etc.), and most importantly, by trying to reduce the need for transfusions in general with clear advises for medical staff in our members‘ living will.
If we can not find suitable partners, we will have to set up our own chain of places to donate and store blood (blood bank).
A telegram channel for easy information will complement this page here.

What YOU can do:

If you want to join us and help within the team, please contact us.
Spread the word, and most importantly, become a member – because only together we are strong.

Please note that there are NO blood donation stations set up yet, nowhere in the UK, as we need medical partners for this purpose first. This will take some time. Check back here frequently and subscribe to our newsletter.

If you need blood NOW, because you have a scheduled surgery coming up, the closest option for us in the UK is to go to Africa or the USA, where many hospitals allow the free choice of blood donor. Go and do your surgery there, and don’t forget to tell the local hospitals – they don’t like to see money swimming away over the ocean ;-)
We are working hard on some east European countries, where we will have our first medical partners soon.
