Workforce Bloodbank

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

This contractor have asked nurses from the local community to come on site and assist the team with collecting blood from operatives who wish to donate a pint of blood. To assist the nurses with this, the meeting room was shut off and given to the nurses to work in and the collection is done over the course of one day. As numbers are near 100, this is a big opportunity to collect well needed supplies of blood for those in need.

Health checks are regularly taken on site but the blood bank is a further way of incorporating health and wellbeing, while also giving back to the local community.

Blood is in short supply and as a large employer, the construction industry could help drastically supply well needed supplies of blood to the health service.
