Stay safe
For everyone's safety, donors and seekers should only ever meet inside a hospital, never in a private location. All donations should be completed at a registered medical facility, where blood is properly screened and cross‑matched. Never pay for or sell blood through informal channels.
General information only, not medical advice. In a medical emergency, contact your hospital and local emergency services immediately.
