Two Goodgymers rendezvoused today with the mission of donating blood. While one successfully made a life-saving contribution (a fantastic 4th time lucky!), the other, unfortunately, celebrated their 300th GoodGym task by being rejected (again!) after their haemoglobin check. Despite the disappointment, the silver lining was: biscuits are still allowed! It just goes to show, sometimes even when things don't go exactly to plan, there's always a sweet reward.
Giving blood saves lives. The blood you give is a lifeline in an emergency and for people who need long-term treatments.
