About us
Launched in 2012 North West Blood Bikes (Lancashire and Lakes) is a volunteer led organisation that specialises in the transportation and delivery of urgent emergency supplies to NHS hospitals throughout the northwest of England. Our volunteers complete thousands of missions every month delivering blood, platelets, donor breast milk, patient notes and samples. If it can be carried by motorcycle, we can deliver it for free to save our NHS hospitals millions of pounds. Our service operates throughout the night and 24 hours a day at weekends and bank holidays enabling clinicians throughout the northwest to focus on delivering the emergency care their patients need with the correct supplies and tools at hand no matter the time of day.

Three North West charities coming together as one for the NHS. For the past month our 🩸🏍️ riders have been quietly ferrying boxes of blood alongside Greater Manchester Blood Bikes from NHS Salford Royal Foundation Trust so that North West Air Ambulance Charity can extend their 'Blood on Board' capacity across the region. This allows their paramedics onboard their helicopters and critical care vehicles to provide blood transfusions to patients in life threatening situations on their way to NHS hospitals across the North West. 🚁 Thanks so much Russ Harrison at GMBB and NWAA's David Briggs, and at North West Blood Bikes - Lancs & Lakes our very own Trish Fitzpatrick Becky Pow and our amazing riders on their 🩸bikes riding 365 days a year

🚁🩸 A massive thank you to our partners at Greater Manchester Blood Bikes and North West Blood Bikes - Lancs & Lakes for their incredible support in getting blood on to all our helicopters and critical care vehicles. They’ve been instrumental in delivering lifesaving blood to our Barton and Blackpool air bases, ensuring that we can continue providing urgent care across the region. They make a real difference every day and we couldn’t do our work without them – thank you for going the extra mile (literally!) 🙏
