Blood test kit

Entrants with a confirmed place on the MdS need to complete documents including a range of questions. One of these questions is your blood group, which many people in the UK do not know. You can ask your GP or health clinic to make a test (may be a charged service), or purchase a blood test kit and do it yourself.

To use the kit, you prick your finger and drop some blood onto the tester. The colour then indicates your blood type.

The kit can only detect the most common blood types - in some cases you may still have to ask your GP to make the test.

Each kit includes two testers. Price includes P+P to the UK.
