LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND BLOOD BIKES

Emergency services

Our group of volunteers provide a free, out of hours courier service to public health bodies in Leicestershire & Rutland between approximately 7 pm and 5 am Monday to Friday, with 24 hour cover at weekends and during public holidays.

We are not an emergency service but work with the hospitals to meet their transport needs in an efficient and timely manner.

We transport blood, blood products, pathology samples, patient notes, x-rays, patient scans, surgical equipment, in fact anything where there is an immediate need to transport an item that will directly benefit patient care.

The group also provides support to the local Air Ambulance, delivering blood each evening for the use of patients with severe traumas.

We also collect human milk from donating mothers in Leicestershire and Rutland and transport it to the Women’s Hospital in Birmingham for processing and subsequent distribution to neonatal units.

We support LOROS Hospice in Leicester with the collection and delivery of patient blood samples where testing is required at NHS laboratories

We are seeking Motorcycle Riders/Drivers/Controllers and Fund Raisers, Please visit our website for more details and how to apply.
