Do you think more people would give blood if they paid you (or gave you a discounted National Insurance rate or something)? I got a begging letter from them about a fortnight ago as I have a rare blood group and they really needed me to go but I can't for the above reasons so they seem to need to change their approach. A keyring isn't enough!

Yes, I'm on iron tabs at the mo. The bran flakes in the morning aren't enough for me. I would like to go again but can't for another fortnight...

Oh well, just hope you never need blood!
If they started paying people you would get druggies and p*ssheads etc turning up!
The main problem is very few people actually want to put effort into doing something that they don't directly benefit from.

Last time a couple of months ago. They always write to me as a reminder when they're in the area, about every 3-4 months, and I just pop along.

plus a few of my donations dont even count as they have been too slow twice & once the needle came out when the nurse was messing with it to try & get it to flow faster
