Listings come from the open Overture Maps Places dataset and are shown as recorded there. NearMe is an independent directory, not the provider. Details change, so please confirm by phone before you travel. We do not publish opening hours because our source does not carry verified hours.

The list shows the most complete records first: entries with a phone number and a street address come before those without, so you have something you can act on straight away.

Chains and independents

Of the 136 blood donation centres we hold, 30 (22%) carry a chain or brand name in our source. The most common are Sanbs (23), WP Blood Donations Centre – N1 City (4) and Western Cape Blood Service (3). The other 78% are independent businesses or entries without a brand tag. Brand tags come from the open dataset and are not always complete, so a branch of a chain can appear without one.
