Many thanks to new supporters (and existing supporters) for signing this petition. Please keep those signatures coming and keep spreading the word about this petition!

I imagine you have seen News updates about the never-ending demand for blood. Whatever the technical reason that you cannot donate blood at this time, don’t give up.

NHSBT have said they will contact me sometime next year and hopefully the non-specific reactions will have disappeared by then, but this petition isn’t about me. I want you all to know, whatever happens, I will keep this petition open so that others going through the setback of not being able to donate blood because of technical issues (nothing to do with their health) can offer their support and voice their concerns if they wish.

Thank you again everyone and please have a look at my other petition on change.org: Reduce the number of items required for rescanning at Tesco self-service checkouts
