Receiving the award from The Weir Charitable Trust has made a big difference to the service we provide to the NHS and in turn the Highland community. This has helped us deliver many samples urgently needed for test and has thus ensured a prompt diagnosis and early treatment of conditions for those in need. Keeping the wheels turning on a Blood Bike also ensures other items such as medications, test kits, and small equipment can get to where needed quickly. We thank The Weir Charitable Trust for its support which in turn has allowed us to support the Highland community.
