Farming’s in your blood. Become a donor and share the good stuff.

Our attendance at National Fieldays last November not only provided us with an opportunity to support this flagship event post COVID but also speak to hundreds of people who were curious about what we do and ask questions about what people’s precious blood is used for. The Waikato team enjoyed connecting with everyone and sharing the ‘good stuff’ we do. Our nurse on site was there to answer any questions people had and provide advice and guidance to those who hadn’t donated before but were interested in starting.

Overall it was a great experience and way for us to talk to so many people from all over the country. We hope to be back again there this year where we’ll need to dust off the gumboots as Fieldays will be back at its usual time of the year in the Waikato winter.
