The Guardian:
Their name might sound a bit ominous, but the 1,500-strong gang…is a long way from the Hell’s Angels.
They’re called the blood bikers: men and women all over Britain who dedicate a few evenings a week to transporting hospital deliveries across the country as stand-ins for the daytime professionals. They are all volunteers, and in 2013 they responded to around 35,000 urgent requests from hospitals, saving the NHS hundreds of thousands of pounds. They take everything from blood and platelets to medicine and breast milk.
Great story about how volunteers on motorcycles transport medical supplies around Britain. Reminds me of another great organization called “Riders for Health” who do something similar in Africa.
I always like to see if I can guess from the RSS summary who wrote an article. This one was easy!
But it’s a great article; thanks for sharing!
LOL Am I that predictable!? 🙂
When the second word of the title is “bikers” I know who to bet on. 🙂
Honestly, you guys are a great team for finding interesting things.
Hopefully, in the not too distant future, we’ll be able to muddle that some. Another member of The Loop team might be riding next spring. 🙂
Hyahhh! [whipcrack]
