<p>On Monday the 9th of December a few Sign-Up.to staff members kindly donated blood here in Woking, Surrey.<span id="more-1576"></span></p>
<p>With blood levels low and one of us with a universal blood type of O negative (yours truly) it was time to help out. As The National Blood Service says:</p>
<blockquote><p>96% of us rely on the other 4% to give blood. Please don’t leave it to someone else.</p></blockquote>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t the most successful group donation with a couple of near faints and one loss of consciousness. However we managed a few successful donations ourselves and got to see plenty of others giving up their time and blood for a great cause.</p>
<p>A big thanks to everyone that came along &#8211; it certainly took a lot of guts.</p>
