Oban nurse Leigh MacKenzie was unable to give blood this time due to working in Africa, but plans to donate at other sessions.
Blood donors in Oban have helped to save or improve more than 900 lives, writes Kathie Griffiths.
Over just two days in Oban last October, 303 people turned up to donor sessions in town to give the gift of life and now the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service is hoping for a repeat. The transfusion service will be back at the Corran Halls on Tuesday (September 18) and Tuesday October 23 from 3.30pm to 7.30pm.
