A while back we were challenged by Granite City Roller Derby, and then again by Dundee Roller Derby, and finally this month we managed to get ourselves along to a session at Nelson Mandela Place for Blood Donor Week!

We had some first time donors giving a pint of the good stuff, as well as some who’ve given their blood volume a few times over. There were nerves but no one who said they wouldn’t go again!

We all went for delicious Mexican food after as we were reliably informed by Devil that broccoli and beans were the post-donation meal of choice. Puma’s margarita came with medicinal chilli.

To sign up to donate blood, check out the rules (they’ve changed recently) or make an appointment, head to the SNBTS website.
