The Dubai Blood Donation Centre has revealed that 1,497 Emirati women donated blood in the last three years.
In total, they said 2,000 units of blood were collected from the donors with some donating more than 30 times.

People can donate blood every eight weeks, with each donation potentially saving up to three lives.
Meanwhile, platelets, which can be donated up to 24 times a year, are also important to help cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
