As an NHS Blood & Transplant Ambassador and passionate advocate for the Black community, Sayo is leading a powerful year-long campaign, It Takes A Village, which aims to recruit 16,000 Black blood donors. In this episode, she opens up about her advocacy work, her family’s experience with sickle cell, and joins Toni in Tea Time with Toni to help solve your dilemmas.
