We are proud to announce that on the 5th RSU Health Day that was held this Wednesday on 25 April, RSU staff members and students donated 20.5 litres of blood. The lobby on the first floor of the RSU central building was turned into a venue for health check-ups where everyone could undergo various health checks and be informed on how to ergonomically optimise one’s workspace. As 25 April is celebrated in Europe as No Elevators Day, RSU staff members and students were encouraged to join this initiative and take the stairs instead of the elevator.
