Could you be our emergency contact? Join our fast response team.

Blood Donor 24 is a dedicated group of emergency donors who commit to giving blood within 24 hours when it's needed most.

If you're able to donate at one of our centres in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow or Inverness, you’re in a unique position to help when there’s an urgent call for your blood type.

Blood demand can change quickly - shortages of certain blood groups can happen for many reasons, from major incidents to lower donations during holidays. When this happens, eligible Blood Donor 24 members will be contacted and asked to donate within 24 hours.

If you’re interested in joining Blood Donor 24, just ask about it the next time you give blood.
