Our Story

We are Glasgow University Give Blood - the society dedicated to improving blood donation among students at Glasgow University. Founded in 2016, GUGB hosts events to educate students about blood donation and encourage them to become donors.

One blood donation can save up to three lives, and just one teaspoon of blood can save a premature baby. As well as saving lives in the acutely unwell, receiving a transfusion can be truly life-changing in alleviating symptoms and improving quality of life for those in need.

With only 3% of eligible Scots giving blood, the need for new, regular blood donors is crucial. Students are an ideal group to encourage to donate, since they usually meet the age criteria and are generally fit and well. By starting donating early on our hope is that many students will go on to donate blood throughout their lives.
