Donating blood saves lives and these generous donations are at the centre of World Blood Donor Day marked every June 14.

World Blood Donor Day raises awareness of the importance of blood donation and encourages potential donors to take part in the selfless act which the World Health Organization (WHO) describes as a gift of life.
