THE Welsh Blood Service is running a number of clinics throughout the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board region in April and May.

The service is appealing for people aged over 17 and under 66 to donate blood.

Donations are by appointment only - and can be booked at donorportal.wales.nhs.uk/AppointmentSystem

If you have had - or are due to have - your coronavirus vaccine, you must wait seven days after having your vaccine before giving blood.
