who cares to join me on Friday the 9th in Glasgow to give the ultimate Christmas gift ? I propose meeting for a coffee and then going to the blood transfusion centre and giving blood then those who would like to once finished head for a pub lunch a mini social food optional but a special moment of giving this Christmas could make the world of a difference to someone who needs it ,, cheers,,,  |

Absolutely brilliant idea!
Unfortunately I am unable to give blood now but did so for many years as a thank you to others who helped save my father 30 years ago.
I always try to encourage people to donate. |

if for any reason you cant donate blood why not just come along to the pub for a drink or lunch ,,,,even if your just out shopping ,, take an hour out and meet some friends new and old ,,,, |

I sincerely wish I could but issues surrounding anaemia and blood transfusions mean I can't
I have however assisted a friend in setting up organ donation this week so I'll make do with that! |

Haha I'd hardly call it a project, just showed her how she can sign up to be an organ donor should anything happen.
But I'm happy knowing there's another on the list xx |

Brilliant idea, shame I'm not in Glasgow to join for the lunch. I used to donate but after having chemo last year and now on meds I'm not sure they would let me any more. Maybe I should investigate further 
I hope you get a few others to join you  |

Would love to give blood,but im not allowed due to a medical condition.
There is a campaign for male A and AB types just now, so go on and donate.
You will only feel a tiny prick at the time, but like a superhero afterwards. |

Even if it was just yourself its a unit that may save a life in times to come. With ongoing things in my life I have a schedule of giving blood and folk I go with. As a side note blood and its products are needed all yr so if you couldnt make this make it another time |
