ARCHIVED - Blood donors required in San Vicente del Raspeig
The Alicante town has scheduled a donation session for Monday, August 2
San Vicente del Raspeig is staging a blood donation session at the Municipal Social Centre exhibition hall on Monday, August 2, 4.30pm to 8.30pm.
There are certain criteria for donating blood in Spain. You have to be aged between 18 and 65, weigh more than 50 kilos and be in good health. Men can give blood up to four times a year and women three.
But anyone who lived in the UK for more than a year between 1980 and 1996 cannot donate, due to concerns over Creutzfeld-Jacob (CJD), or mad cow disease.
