Object:
4. The organisation's purposes are: 4.1 Give Blood 4 Good- Donating for a good cause 4.1.1 Improving awareness and education surrounding blood donation. 4.1.2 Sharing stories of donors and recipients. 4.1.3 Improving the accessibility and awareness of donor centres across the UK. 4.2 Give Blood 4 Good- Regular donation 4.2.1 Creating a culture in which regular donation becomes part of people's lives. 4.2.2 Encouraging early donation habits by directing education initiatives towards young adults. 4.2.3 Encouraging young adults to donate in groups, bringing along people who have never donated before. 4.2.4 Foster a fun approach and encourage healthy competition to remove the mystique and fear often associated with blood donation. We aim to encourage all eligible people to donate. This means focusing on creating a culture that inspires the younger generation to donate and to continue to do so until they are no longer able. A staggering 81% of 18-24 year olds have never donated blood, with 35% of this age group admitting that they are scared to donate . Targeting the younger generation is important to Give Blood 4 Good because we feel if we can encourage blood donation to become a regular part of people's lives from a young age then we can increase donor participation levels long-term.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?

From April 2016 we began to publish charities’ accounts, initially for those charities with an annual income of £25,000 or more, and for all SCIOs.

When a charity publishes its accounts on its website and has supplied us with a link, we have made this available. From late 2017, where the charity is a company, a registered social landlord or is also registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, a link is provided to the relevant regulator’s website where the accounts are made available. We accept no responsibility for the functionality, accuracy, or content of external websites – if you experience a technical issue with an external link, you should contact the charity directly.

You have the right to the following information under section 23 (1)(a) and (b) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, from the charity direct:

  • a copy of the charity’s latest statement of accounts
  • a copy of the charity’s constitution.

In addition to the above, a charity may also be able to provide you with previous years’ accounts and constitutions, although it is not obliged to do so. You can contact the charity to request this information using the contact details on the charity’s Register entry.
