The Defence Blood Drive launched in Canberra on Friday, and this year the Australian Defence Force (ADF) is inviting the public to get involved.
The ADF aims to raise 11,000 life-saving blood donations between Navy, Army, Air Force and Defence public service, with the public encouraged to assist by also donating blood in support of the ADF Drive.
Leading the campaign is ADF Blood Drive Ambassador, Group Captain Mike Burgess-Orton, who hopes this year’s involvement of the public will increase much-needed donations for Red Cross Lifeblood.
