You could save lives regularly!

All you need to do, if you are medically able, is to commit a couple of hours every couple of months, to become a regular blood donor.

Juuust in time for #FursuitFriday! Here’s our team photo from our group donation at Perth CBD Lifeblood centre last Saturday!

Feat. @mainesmane.cat (🦋) and @HeyItsRobin, along with @/tayble_spoon (twitter), @/licial (🦋), and @/rennfrens (🦋) pawing at the glass to donate wanting to be let in to donate! Sadly only 2 of 5 were able to donate this time, but we love all our heroes for showing up and giving it a go! 💖

Earlier this week I donated blood for the first time. It went super well! I sometimes have a bit of hemophobia, and inexplicably it didn't bother me at all. Will definitely be donating again.

If you are medically able, please consider becoming a regular blood donor. All blood banks are running low--COVID decimated the ranks of regular donors, who tend to be older. It takes but a couple of hours every couple of months, and you get to save lives.

Go on, save lives.

I think for the first time ever I was late for blood donation. But the pressure , they were super nice.
