About


The WP focuses on both recipients and donors. We develop definitions and tools and share and compare data. We regularly discuss updates on international activities and work on definitions and tools. We collaborate with HV organisations across the world.

Our Chairperson is Mary Townsend.

The Paediatric Subgroup is chaired by Ruchika Goel. The subgroup is a shared group between the Clinical Transfusion and the Haemovigilance Working Parties.
