Squeezing in a Christmas donation since Santa said it's the best gift one can give! Every donation counts, donate if you can. Thank you Chloe and the team at @GiveBloodNHS Leeds ❤️.Merry Christmas, everyone!🎄
When it comes to giving gifts, here's someone who's a bit of an expert. 🎅🎁. Even Santa knows the best gift to give this Christmas is blood! 🩸. Every donation can save up to 3 lives. Are you the giving type?
