If you're not an instructor yet, why not sign up for an instructor course this year so you can benefit from all the deals we have for our BSAC volunteers?

Thanks to the very welcoming staff at the Birmingham donor centre this afternoon to help me donate unit no. 66 which will hopefully go and help 6 neo-natal babies. @GiveBloodNHS #giveblood

Can't beat a kit clean after an excellent week of diving with @MVHuskyan on the German High Fleet wrecks. Brilliant briefs from Emily, superb accommodation at no. 15, lovely soup on board between dives. Great week.

Another #litterpick. Usual collection of 💩 bags and #plastic bottles / bags but today a lot of wet wipes smeared with 💩 were thrown in the bushes. I wonder 🤔 if wiping a dog's 🍩 and throwing the shi**y wet wipe in the bush is a new #litter trend.

A wonderful evening of litter picking with 2 Wellington Cubs. 2 good sized bags of #litter collected. #skillsforlife @scouts

[Gordon K @GordonTheDiver]

Thank you @GiveBloodNHS for letting me know that donation 65 went to St George's Hospital, London.

Hopefully the neo nat blood has helped a family out. #giveblood
