The New Zealand Blood Service is coming to Johnsonville next month. People will have the opportunity to join the blood service in its mission to save lives by donating blood on 18 July at the Johnsonville Community Centre.

“Every drop of blood has the power to bring hope and support those in need,” the blood service says.

“Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals in our community.

“Every day, patients rely on blood transfusions for various medical treatments, surgeries, and emergencies.

“By giving just a little of your time and blood, you can be a hero to someone in need.

“Your generous contribution can provide comfort to families, bring relief to the sick, and offer a second chance at life.”

And it is “immensely rewarding,” the blood service says.

Donating blood is a simple process, and the blood service’s experienced team will guide donors through it every step of the way.

“Join us in Johnsonville and be a beacon of hope for those in need of blood. Together, we can create a stronger and healthier community,” the blood service says.
