Australia's lifeblood
A name that lives depend on.
At Lifeblood, we're here for all Australians - all 24 million of you. And although our life-giving role started 90 years ago with blood donations, today we support more people in more ways than ever before.
What our donors say
“I love that feeling of joy from helping someone out; that my blood has made a difference to another person's life.”
Jackie, blood donor
“It was a really easy experience, in that you show up, everything’s ready to go, the nurses will help walk you through what’s involved.”
Manik, plasma donor
“It's my way of giving to the community — I don't get much time to volunteer but I can always find time to donate blood.”
Nicola, blood donor
