The Irish Blood Transfusion Service will host a new blood donation clinic in Clare to address a shortfall of clinics nationwide post Christmas. It comes as the IBTS has reported that across Ireland there is currently a shortfall of 45 donation clinics, with supply also reduced for a time over the Christmas period. To counteract, supply and clinic shortfall in this county, IBTS will run a blood donation clinic in Clonlara for the first time at Clonlara Community Centre on Sunday from 11.50am to 3.10pm. Broadford based Donor Recruitment Executive Alex O'Connor, says blood stocks overall are reasonable but that they cannot afford to rest on their laurels.
