Exceptional opening hours for Easter, May Day, and Ascension Day
In April and May, there are several four-day weeks due to holidays. Blood products are needed in hospitals every day of the year, regardless of whether it is a weekday or a holiday. Platelets, which are vital for cancer patients, only last a few days after donation. Blood donors' help is needed more frequently during these weeks.
If you do not have any obstacles to blood donation and blood donation fits into your schedule, book an appointment or stop by! You can also encourage others to help around Easter. You can find the opening hours of all service points and the dates of mobile events on our website.
