The Australian Red Cross is urging more people to give blood regularly, as the end of National Blood Donor week draws near.
Around 3 per cent of the population currently donate blood or plasma at least once a year, which accounts for around half a million people.
However, only around 30,000 donors give blood more than three or four times a year.
A spokesperson for the organisation, Jemma Falkenmire, has told SBS Gujarati, there is a need for more people to sign-up to be regular donors.
"So at the moment we need about 1.7 million donations of blood and plasma to help patients in hospitals across Australia. Demand is very high. The demand for plasma, the golden part of blood is the highest it's ever been in Australia, and the demand for blood itself is around at a twelve year high."

English Premier League side Tottenham have hired Thomas Frank as their head coach, to replace Ange Postecoglou who was fired last week.
Postecoglou was dumped despite leading Tottenham to their first trophy in 17 years with a win over Manchester United in the Europa League final.
The 51-year-old Frank will end his nearly decade-long tenure at Brentford, where he established a reputation as a shrewd coach.
At Tottenham, he will be managing in the Champions League for the first time.
