A blood drive at the Château de Fontainebleau

It’s a blood collect unusual that awaits the donors this 9 mars from 12:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.. It is, in fact, in the exceptional setting of the Fontainebleau castlewithin the deer gallery (place Napoléon), that it will take place. Due to a dangerously critical level of blood reserves, Ile-de-France residents are asked to take an hour of their time to save three lives. For the French Blood Establishment, the choice of this prestigious place is a way of thanking the donors for their generosity. 1,700 blood donations are needed every day in Île-de-France, because the shelf life of blood products is limited (seven days for platelets and 42 days for red blood cells). Blood donation is possible every eight weeks, up to six times a year for men and four times a year for women.

Candidates must register on the mon-rdv-dondesang.efs.sante.fr platform Or on the “Blood Donation” app. They must be between 18 and 70 years old and weigh at least 50 kg. An identity document (with photo), the vaccination pass and the wearing of a mask are compulsory.
