hi, as far as i am aware it has to be donated at the near east and let them know it is for Vaughan Williams.
Not sure if Girne hospital will send it to them.
Many thanks

I would urge any potential donors to phone the hospital first, we went a couple of years ago but their age limits were much lower than the state hospital so we had a wasted journey.

That's the first time that I have seen a differentiation between sexes. I didn't think it mattered.

I doubt it was just blood they wanted...possibly platelets and always very difficult to source.
