Hospital labs don't stop for the weekend, and neither do we.

Today Bernard carried a package from the lab at Letterkenny University Hospital to the lab at Altnagelvin, with Andrew coordinating the run from start to finish.

One call, one rider, one delivery. That's the job.

Today our rider Glen collected a piece of medical equipment from a family in our area. It needed to go back to Temple Street Children's Hospital in Dublin.

Glen met Brian from CuChulainn CCBB Blood Bikes in Aughnacloy for the handover, and Brian passed it on to Blood Bikes East for the final leg.

This is how the Blood Bike network works: groups linking up across the country so a delivery gets where it's needed.

Thanks to Glen for the run, to Andrew for coordinating, and to Brian and Blood Bike East for taking it on.
