Congrats Jacque on your 90th donation today!! 🏆

Lovely Jacque has been a regular donor since the 1970s and was inspired to donate because she (like her mother) has a very rare blood type AB-. Less than 1% of donors have this special blood type, meaning she gets called in specifically to help test everything is working properly in the labs, so without her donation, no donations can be processed. Her donations in the past have also been made into eye serums - how cool!

Jacque's reason for coming in so often is it's a “little thing one person can do.” She was a vet nurse and a zookeeper, so knows the importance of blood, seeing blood transfusions also happen in animals.

You are one very special whole blood donor Jacque! Thank you for making a regular stop to see us, especially as most your donations have been whole blood, this is an insanely incredible milestone!! 💜

Today, we met a group of friends who came in to donate blood together! 👏 Jus (left), Sorcha (middle) and Aleks (right) were inspired to come in after watching the movie ‘Iron Lung’, which has teamed up with blood donation centres in America to encourage more people to donate, how cool! It was special being Jus’ 6th donation, Aleks’ 2nd & Sorcha’s very first time coming in to donate🎉

Thanks to this awesome trio for coming in before uni starts up again, we loved meeting you guys & see you again in 3 months!

A special shout out to the lads at Awanui Labs for taking the time to come in and donate at Epsom together yesterday!! Ross is our regular platelet donor with 139 donations and convinced his fellow workmates (Mousheen, Abdul, Tairea & Haymish) to come along, and for some – this was their very first donation (it is never too late to start!).

What champions, it was a pleasure to meet you all🏆
Ka Pai fellas, see you next time!

Introducing the lovely Barnao family!

The Epsom Donor Centre was lucky enough to have a family join us and donate plasma together – Victoria & Sarah (who are sisters) and Sarah’s son, Flynn. Together they have reached 25 donations, an amazing effort by the trio!💜

The Barnao's are an incredible family who brighten up the donor centre, not only by donating, but Victoria is used to helping save lives every day in her line of work. She is currently a school nurse, but has worked at National Women’s Hospital and Auckland City Hospital at the neonatal intensive care unit, where she spoke of the value of blood products helping save the lives of many babies over the years, including her own. Victoria had an ectopic pregnancy in the year 2000, where she required an emergency lifesaving surgery and received a blood transfusion, so blood products saved her life too.

The special part of what we do is getting to know our donors and hearing touching stories as to why people donate. Thank you to the Barnao’s, you have made our day & we look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks! 😊

Our lovely Epsom donor, Kit, has recently donated plasma on his birthday and on his 188th donation! 🥳Kit first started donating when he was at high school in Wellington and started donating plasma when he came up to Auckland around 10 years ago.

We want to recognise and thank Kit for regularly squeezing in plasma and platelet donations in between his busy schedule, his dedication to donating means a lot to us. We love his energy, his laughs and the chats he brings. Thank you, Kit! 😊

We would love to see more donors just like Kit, so if you’re keen to get started or wanting to know more, please call us on 0800 448 325, or please use the app/website (https://www.nzblood.co.nz/) to book!

Our lovely donor, Barb celebrated her big 100th donation! A special mention to Barb for her continual dedication to donating, she is an absolute gem with plenty of good stories and travelling advice! Barb has been donating since she started studying nursing at the age of 20, with a few breaks in between when she moved to the US and had children.

Thank you, Barb, for helping keep our blood stocks up over the Christmas/New Years period – you’re very special to us at Epsom 😊

With donors going away and reduced hours in the coming weeks, it is harder to fill appointments, so if you're fit and healthy we'd love to see you! The Epsom Donor Centre will be closed on 25th Dec, 26th Dec, 1st Jan and 2nd Jan, otherwise back to business as usual!

John has been donating since high school and comes in regularly to the Epsom donor centre, today he celebrated his 200th donation with his son, Simon.

John’s family is heavily involved in donating – his mother donated, his sister donates, his niece donates, and both of his sons donate too – what a family! John is a wonderful man with a big heart; we thank him for being so passionate saying the “gift of life” is the best thing to give. Congrats, John!

The Epsom Donor Centre was lucky to have (almost) the whole Hansen family join us! Father Carl donated alongside his four kids – Ben, twins Rebecca and Jessica (16), and Matthew. Carl’s wife and niece donate too, and his mother reached 100 donations before retiring from giving. It is fair to say that donating blood runs in this very special family ❤️

This was the kids second time donating and Carls’ 62nd. The whole family are O group, helping keep our red blood stocks strong. Hansen Family, it was lovely to meet you, we are very lucky to have the family join us and thank you for your efforts in coming together. What legends! 👍🏼
