The Australian Red Cross Blood Service – Victoria is running a ‘Bring A Mate’ Campaign from 1 May 2003 – 31 July 2003.

The Campaign encourages existing blood donors to introduce a friend, family member or colleague to blood donation by bringing them along when they donate and showing them how easy it is.

As a token of appreciation, the Blood Service is giving every donor and their "mate" who donate together before 31 July 2003, a movie ticket to the Sale Cinemas.

Central Gippsland Blood Donor Centre is located at 67 – 69 Macalister Street, Sale and is open every Wednesday from 4pm to 8pm and Thursday 10am to 2pm. Appointments can be made by contacting 5143 2400.
