A huge thank you to the donors who put in the effort to save lives after cyclone Vaianu - blood stocks are on the up and we're moving closer to our plasma target each day. If you haven't donated this week, don't forget to book your appointment for next week 💉

Hey North Shore!

Here at NZ Blood, we're trying to work toward self-sustainability in plasma. With demand growing at roughly 10% per year, in order to reach our goal for 2026, we need 101 000 donations this year.

We are currently 73% through this collection year and have only collected 69% of our goal - can you help?

On your next donation, bring a friend and shre the joy of saving lives with someone close to you 🤝

Book now! We hope to see you soon.

Happy New Year Takapuna Donor Centre whānau!

Our friends from New Zealand Blood Service - Constellation Drive have shared their New Year's Resolutions and we are on board 🥳 What are your resolutions for 2026?

Tell us over at Takapuna Donor Centre, 441 Lake road when you donate this year. See you there!

Reasons to add donating blood/plasma to your New Year’s resolutions list:

- You can save up to three lives with each blood donation and create up to 11 lifesaving products with a plasma donation

- Less than 4% of the eligible population in New Zealand are blood or plasma donors 🩸

- It is the most relaxing way to make a difference in the community. Sit in a recliner and we will bring you biscuits! 😋

- Pay it forward. One day your whānau, friends or even you may need it. ❤️❤️

Begin your 2026 with saving a life! ✨
