The Clare Branch of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service is appealing for new donors amid a challenging time of year for the service.

The IBTS is aiming to retain a minimum of 3 days worth of blood stocks in order to facilitate routine hospital services such as heart and knee operations, pregnancies and cancer treatment.

Donation clinics will be taking place this evening and tomorrow Wednesday at Treacy’s Oakwood Hotel from 4pm until 20 past 7.

Broadford based IBTS Recruitment Executive Alex O’Connor says its vital new participants come forward in order to keep the healthcare system running.
