NHS Blood and Transplant Laboratory Tours
Sign up for a chance to see how human blood is processed from the donor to the clinically accurate blood component stored in the NHS laboratory.
Over the coming weeks we are offering visits to NHS Blood and Transplant (NHS-BT) to experience the blood processing laboratory, based in Plymouth Grove. There are also several current students and graduates that work there and see the labs will help with interviews for roles there.
Tours will last around 2 hours and we will walk down from John Dalton Building (around a 15-minute walk). There are multiple sessions over the coming weeks, all on Wednesday morning, please select the session you can attend from the drop down menu to the right.
Places are limited to 9 students per session. You will be advised where to meet when you have been confirmed onto a session.
