Blood donation and flea market at the BayArena

Donating blood and doing a good turn plus searching for black and red treasure! Bayer 04 are joining forces with the German Red Cross (DRK) on Thursday 1 October in holding a blood donor session at the BayArena – and the Bayer 04 fan liaison team are staging a flea market on the piazza in the afternoon.

Blood donations are always in great demand but particularly during the coronavirus pandemic – there is a shortage of blood stocks worldwide due to the decline in people willing to donate. Bayer 04 supported the DRK #missingtype campaign last term – and are now calling for donations again. The blood donor session will be held in the Premium Lounge (level 2) at the BayArena in accordance with all the current physical distancing and hygiene measures.

Registration is required: A session can be booked HERE. Further information on blood donation is available HERE.

The Bergische Krankenkasse will also have an information stall on site. Bayer 04 fans can also be tested and entered in the bone marrow donor register.

Flea market on the piazza

After the good turn, the Bayer 04 fan liaison team are inviting all blood donors, as well as all interested Werkself fans of course, to visit a flea market on the piazza on the west side of the BayArena. Fans of flea markets can search for and acquire old and new Bayer 04 treasures from 15.00 CET. The money raised will be donated to the support group Förderverein Fanprojekt Leverkusen e.V. to help finance community work and fans in Leverkusen.

Anybody interested should visit the Facebook page of the fan liaison team in the week before the flea market – information will be provided there on the available objects.

The Bayer 04 fan liaison team will be happy to answer questions about the afternoon at the BayArena at Fanbetreuung@Bayer04.de.
