NIBTS GH Leaflet (updated January 2024)
This applies to people in maintenance as well as pre-maintenance. A referral from your hospital consultant is required, which can be completed online.
People whose serum ferritin is over 1000 ng/ml must be reviewed by a hospital specialist, before being accepted as a donor. Provided there is no evidence of liver cirrhosis or cardiac issues, people with high ferritin levels can be accepted as donors by NIBTS.
How do I register as a GH donor and book a blood donation session?
If you live in Northern Ireland, contact NIBTS on freephone 08085 534 666 or text "BLOOD" to 60081.
