Did you know, blood donation rules around acupuncture have changed today?
If you've had acupuncture through the NHS, from a registered healthcare professional, or from a UK practitioner who meets local licensing requirements, you can usually donate blood straight away.
If your practitioner doesn't fall into one of these categories, you'll need to wait four months before donating.
If you're unsure whether you're eligible to donate, please give our Donor Care Line a call (0345 90 90 999). Our team will be happy to help, and we hope to see you at a donation session soon.
