Story

We are just one of many Charitable Blood Bike groups that provide a
similar service around the United Kingdom and we are governed and
overseen by the Nationwide Association of Blood Bikes NABB who share our mission to provide reliable, free and high quality urgent transport service to NHS Trusts and Hospices throughout the UK.

Our service is Free of Charge to the NHS and operates out of hours through the night, Monday to Thursday 7pm to 7am and 24 hours at weekends and Bank Holidays. In Yorkshire We are now responding to more than 3000 urgent call-outs a year.

During the COVID-19 pandemic we have been operating a 24/7 service to support the NHS with a low-volume urgent transport service.

We have supported NHS temporary Phlebotomy drive-through centres, carried Variants of Concern COVID tests, donated Breast Milk for Special Care Baby Units and participated in national relays with neighbouring Blood Bike groups. 

Despite having Full Time Jobs, many of our members still give their
spare time to help run and maintain what is a truly worthwhile charity,
and an organization who are intent on making a difference to the care of patients across Yorkshire.

About the charity

We use a fleet of motorcycles and deliver 7pm to 7am Monday to Thursday and 24hours from 7pm Friday night to 7am Monday morning.
