Celebrate with us the past, present and future of blood donation
and the blood transfusion service in Scotland.
2010 will mark two important anniversaries for the history of blood
transfusion in Scotland:
- 70 years ago, in 1940, the Scottish National Blood Transfusion
Association - the precursor to SNBTS - was founded.
- 80 years ago, in 1930, the first volunteer blood donor panel in
Scotland was founded in Edinburgh by Jack Copland.
Many of the important figures in the history of blood donation and
transfusion medicine in Scotland remain alive and active, giving us
the chance to forge real links with the origins of the service.
