This is amazing, I was a prem baby over 70 years ago and my poor Dad used to cycle to the hospital with Moms milk for me. You all do a wonderful job, thank you. ❤️
Proud to be a tiny cog in the wheel of SSCBB
Great group of people, great cause, what’s not to like. Give a little back. 😃👍

Nice one Mick, purely for managing to get air side. I struggled with a marked RAF police vehicle at Heathrow, even when it was part of my job! No, seriously good job by all involved.👍
Fabulous job by all concerned - I was following the flight on Flight Tracker 24. Best wishes to the patient, let's hope s/he improves
And you got to take the bike air side! Not tempted to do a scene from Top Gun? Congratulations on a job well done. 👍

Well done to our neighbours 😊👏👏
And these figures don’t show the additional commitment represented by team members being on standby in case they are urgently required, including not only riders but controllers, committee members and bike maintenance activities, and not forgetting members preparation time, training commitment and commuting. A fantastic effort all around.
Well done to all of you., 💖
What people say about us
“The blood bikes are vital to getting our life saving faecal transplants to critically ill patients with C. dificile infection”
Professor Peter Hawkey, FMT Service Lead, PHE Public Health Laboratory Birmingham
“On a regular basis we need to transport samples urgently, between Shrewsbury and Telford, and also from here in Shropshire to Birmingham and beyond. In the past it has been quite difficult, out of hours, to get those samples moving quickly, so it has made a huge difference to us to be able to rely on blood bikes to get those samples moving for us.”
Debbie Jones, Support Services Care Group Director Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust
“The voluntary service the blood bikes offer us has been instrumental in widening the scope of our FMT service across the country and ensuring costs are a low as possible for the NHS”
Dr Vicki McCune, FMT Service Manager PHE Public Health Laboratory Birmingham
“There is certainly times when the quicker we can get results back, the better the outcome for the patient, so blood bikes are helping to save lives and, at the same time, they are saving the NHS lots of money”
Debbie Jones, Support Services Care Group Director Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust
“We are so grateful to the volunteer riders who give up their time to courier blood products and urgent samples for testing between our hospitals and the regional NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) centre in Birmingham. Every minute counts when it comes to helping seriously-ill and injured patients and being able to call on the blood bikes round the clock helps us to provide safe, effective treatment and transfusions.”
Paula Gardener, Chief Nurse Burton Hospital Trust (covering Burton, Lichfield and Tamworth)
“We very much appreciate all of their efforts and the support they give both SaTH and the wider NHS.”
Debbie Jones, Support Services Care Group Director Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust
