We the undersigned students of UCD would liek to express our dissatisfaction at the Irish Blood Transfusion Service' refusal to allow gay men their right to donate blood.
We would like you to follow the example set by the NHS' Blood and Transplant Department (Giver Blood) in Britain in allowing gay men to give blood. Gay men (and women who have had sex with gay men) would like to be treated as equals in all regards in Irish society and your organisation is standing in the way of this progress.
