Ben Everitt, the MP for Milton Keynes North, has given blood locally and encouraged other people to do the same and help save a life.
It is suggested that nearly 400 new donors a day are needed to meet demand, as well as 40,000 more black donors to meet growing demand for better-matched blood.
30,000 new donors with priority blood types such as O negative are needed every year and more young people to start giving blood so we can make sure we have enough blood in the future.
Blood.co.uk say: "We need more O negative, B negative, and A negative donors."
Each donation can save up to three lives.
Ben Everitt MP said: "It's easy to do, you could save a life, and there's even free biscuits!"
