Petition Details

This petition is to Give Gay Men the right to give blood by the end of 2016.

Additional Information

Rules insisting that gay men are only allowed to donate blood if they haven't had sex with another man in the past 12 months are discriminatory, and don't make sense given the often reported need for blood donations.
