New locations announced for Águilas blood donation drive
The Regional Blood Donation Centre announces a permanent move from Casa del Mar to Águilas Norte and Sur health centres starting this July
The Regional Blood Donation Centre has announced a change of venue for its regular blood donation sessions in Águilas.
From July onwards, donations will no longer take place at the Casa del Mar and will instead be held at the Águilas Norte and Águilas Sur health centres.
The first sessions at the new locations will take place on Tuesday 7 and Tuesday 14 July at the Águilas Sur Health Centre, followed by sessions on Tuesday 21 and Tuesday 28 July at the Águilas Norte Health Centre.
The centre says the change will make it easier and more comfortable for people to donate blood. Moving the sessions to local health centres also means they can be held in facilities that are already set up for healthcare services.
The Regional Blood Donation Centre thanked the Casa del Mar for hosting the sessions over the years and hopes both regular donors and those thinking of donating for the first time will continue to support the programme at its new locations.
Blood donations are needed throughout the year to help hospitals across the Region of Murcia, and local donors continue to play an important role in keeping supplies available for patients who need them.

Águilas boasts 28 kilometres of coastline, with many fine, sandy beaches, sheltered coves and unspoilt natural beaches. It is a great summer favourite with Spanish holidaymakers, so always has a superb programme of concerts and activities throughout the summer, as well as the biggest carnival in the Region of Murcia, 40 days before Semana Santa (Easter.)
Throughout the year it also has a number of museums and historical attractions, a castle with fabulous views overlooking the bay and several other points of interest, all of which make it an good place to visit for days out. Throughout the year the tourist office runs monthly guided tours and the route of the railways, which explores the railway history of the town.
The tourist information office is located in the Plaza de Antonio Cortijos, just a short walk from the sea front and Plaza de España, a cool, shaded space in which to enjoy a coffee.
