Mary Whalley from Firdale has recently been awarded a certificate for giving blood for the 50th time. She started about 35 years ago and has been going once or twice a year ever since at Weaverham. She took her grandaughter Megan (aged 11) for her 50th time on Easter Saturday. Megan was so busy telling everyone proudly about her Nanna that Mary got a big round of applause as well as a golden badge and pen.Mary said she's 58 and it's done her no harm at all so she'd like to say to everyone; "give it a go, it saves lives and it doesn't hurt much!" "And a big thankyou to Megan for coming with me."
