Meteor in the Community

Meteor employees receive a visit from the Bloodmobile  

Meteor employees took time out of their working day today to donate blood at the Irish Blood Mobile's recently launched service, The Bloodmobile.

The Bloodmobile provides a flexible & innovative way for people to give blood during the working day by visiting companies during the working week.

Every year, thousands of patients require important blood transfusions whether they are undergoing surgery, recovering from cancer or have been in a serious accident. With the Bloodmobile, people can help the Irish Blood Transfusion Service meet their target of 3,000 donations per week throughout the country, all without ever leaving the workplace.
