Give blood, save a life. 🩸 We’re very happy to be hosting a blood donation initiative at 150 Holborn next Tuesday 29 October for all our Sidara collaborative staff. Why give blood? Giving blood saves lives. The NHS says it takes three donations per minute to provide enough blood to handle emergencies, childbirth, and routine appointments, not to mention long-term treatments. And blood only has a shelf life of 35 days, so stocks need to be continually replenished. How long does giving blood take? The actual donation of blood takes around 10 minutes, but you need to allow time for screening beforehand and at least 15 minutes afterwards while you have a drink and snack (provided) and relax. Our NHS urgently needs blood so, if you can spare an hour to do something amazing and help save someone’s life, head over here to find out more. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e4fVsp3H Dar, Currie & Brown, Introba, Maffeis Engineering, PARA, Penspen, Perkins&Will, Portland Design, Urban Initiatives. #150Holborn #giveblood #savelives #SidaraCollaborative The Royal Fusiliers' City of London bronze statue war memorial outside our office is dedicated to both the 1914-1918 and 1939-1945 wars.
