BASEPOINT Business Centres Chepstow is delighted to announce that their hardworking handyman, Lawrence Woodfield, has donated more than 75 pints of blood to the Welsh Blood Service. Lawrence has been given a certificate and a beautiful glass paperweight to celebrate reaching the landmark of 75 pints. 

When asked about his achievement Lawrence commented: “The first time I went was with a bunch of lads from work. One of them fainted and has never been back, but luckily I’m not squeamish. The process doesn’t bother me and you’re rewarded with a lovely biscuit at the end of it. When I reached 50 pints I was invited to Nevill Hall Hospital in Abergavenny for a presentation and to meet some patients. Meeting the people you help really brings home how important blood donation is.”
