NHS Blood and Transplant is urging people in Tooting hitting the 28-day Covid-19 recovery mark to register as plasma donors.
People can only donate 28 days after they’ve recovered, so the number of potential donors is now at the highest ever level following the national record number of cases over the New Year.
Donation takes about 45 minutes. Your body quickly replaces the donated plasma and donated antibodies. All donations are tested for COVID antibodies.
Men, black and Asian people, and people aged over 35, are more likely to have the high antibody levels needed for donation.
People can register to donate online at www.nhsbt.nhs.uk -

Bike hangars will be installed soon in 21 streets
Bike hangars are to be installed in 21 streets across the borough in the coming months.
The locations have been chosen following requests from local people and consultation with residents.
Town hall engineers were hoping to install these hangars quickly, but the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has delayed their manufacture and delivery from the supplier. It is however hoped they will be delivered before the autumn.
Hangars will be installed in the following streets:
• Putney and Southfields – Acuba Road, Astonville Street, Deodar Road and Ruvigny Gardens
• Earlsfield and Wandsworth – Aslett Street, Franche Court Road and Quinton Street.
• Battersea and Clapham Junction –Joubert Street, Kelmscott Road, Marney Road and Queenstown Road.
• Tooting and Balham – Avarn Road, Byrne Road, Garratt Terrace, Hebdon Road, Letchworth Street, Mandrake Road, Nevis Road, Ravenswood Road and Sellincourt Road.
