The Australian Red Cross mobile blood donation service will be at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst next week. The Head of Campus at CSU in Bathurst, Mr Col Sharp, encourages CSU staff, students and members of the Bathurst community to make a donation if possible. “Most of us now know the stats,” said Mr Sharp. “One in three Australians will need blood at some time, but only one in 30 donates. We also know that donated blood helps a wide range of people,” he added, “but collectively many who can donate just don’t make the time – even though they want to. Many of our students and staff donate, but we simply need more blood. I therefore invite members of the Bathurst community to help out - it only takes a phone call to make an appointment and 45 minutes to donate.  We’d love to see more locals come onto campus to donate.” Anyone wishing to donate blood can make an appointment online or phone the Australian Red Cross on 13 14 95. The service will operate from Monday 16 to Thursday 19 September outside the CD Blake Auditorium, building E1 on Village Drive, CSU in Bathurst.
