Today marks the start of Lyme Disease awareness month. Lyme Disease is a bacterial infection that can be spread to humans by infected ticks. For more information on the signs, symptoms and how to deal with tick bites, take a look at our article below.

Having recently received treatment for Lyme Disease myself I wanted to highlight some of the signs, symptoms and actions on finding a tick.

Important: O Negative and O Positive blood groups are both predicted to fall to below 3 days supply in the next week. This is a result of the Easter holidays. Please do share and make an extra special effort to book now - we'd particularly love to welcome donors to our Donor Centres across Scotland and have plenty of appointments available. Thank you.
