Across the UK, a group of volunteer motorcyclists is helping hospitals by delivering blood. Angela Brown is one of them. She is on call for 80 hours each month. At very short notice, she can be woken in the night and find herself riding a motorbike with a vital delivery for a hospital. But she's not an employee of any hospital. She's just a volunteer, one of the 1400 advanced qualified riders of the Association of Blood Bikers. Last year, the Association's bikers responded to around 35000 rapid transport requests from 262 UK hospitals. Besides blood, the bikers also deliver surgical tools and medicine. Brown first discovered blood biking when she was on a course at the institute of advanced motorists. Her trainer, who himself was a blood biker, warned that their training ride might be stopped if he was called away. Under his influence, Brown started volunteering as a rider. She later discovered that blood bikers once helped her own nephew, Peter. He received b
lood delivered by a rider on New Year's Eve, 2015. Brown says being a blood biker is a way of helping the community and being on the bike at the same time.

Wearable devices are not just for humans anymore. A growing range of electronic callers and cameras can help you monitor your pets' activity and even emotional state. Was your cat happy? How much exactly did your dog eat today? Knowing the answers to such questions is becoming ever easier. This week, the insurance group. ASA, invested in a co
mpany called All4Pet, which makes the PetMe, a wearable activity monitor for dogs. The PetMe can feedback information on a dog's activity level and food intake. And healthier dogs may earn their owners a lower pet insurance fee. According to Andy Wells, the chief designer of the PetMe, there are a lot of challenges with dogs now. He says "about 4 million out of 9 million dogs in our country are too fat, and about 25% are left home alone". So pet care is worsening. Meanwhile, bills from pet doctors are rising each year, and so are insurance fees. Our purpose is to help owners keep their dogs fit and active in a fun way, which also helps insurance companies lower their costs. Our company, All4Pet, is using this data to build a database on dogs. So we can understand what makes one dog healthy and another overweight. Why certain conditions affect some dogs more than others?
