‘Super-donors’ honoured by Blood Transfusion Service

One hundred and sixty four "super-donors" were honoured at the Rochestown Park Hotel last night at the Irish Blood Transfusion Service’s annual awards.

Some 139 people — including myself — have reached the 50 donations mark. Another 25 were honoured for making their 100th donation.

Cork Lord Mayor Mary Shields, Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS) chair Anthony Staines, and IBTS chief executive Andy Kelly joined more than 300 guests at the ceremony.
