Thurso Acks FC - Blood Donors

Gemma Coghill, wife of Thurso Acks captain Murray, recently gave birth to Sam and days afterwards had complications that required urgent hospital treatment in Wick, including the need for 12 pints of blood. After some anxious moments, everything turned out fine.

The Acks players and officials decided to replace the 12 pints by donating their blood when the transfusion service visited Thurso recently. The blood transfusion service was so impressed that they wanted pics for a press article.
