Franco Debono Thinks Bernard Grech Should Reconsider

Jun 17 2025

Taking to social media, lawyer, former MP and one of the PN supporters’ favourites to take on the mantle of leader Franco Debono, said that Bernard Grech should reconsider his position and stay on as leader.

He opened his statement by recalling his relationship to Grech when he (Franco) was 11 years old and Grech fourteen years old on the school minibus.

‘Let me reveal a little secret. Back then, he fancied himself a bit of a playboy’, he said cheekily.

‘As leader, he always respected me and I respected him in return. He achieved the best result for the party in the past fifteen years, in the 2024 MEP election, and that’s why in recent days I felt I should encourage him and invite him to reconsider his position. Out of respect, I asked him to think again’, wrote Debono.

‘I must say that since he offered his resignation, his stature has only grown.’

He went on thank him for all the work he did, saying that despite the results possibly being better, the effort was sincere.

On World Blood Donor Day, Meridianbet Turns Its Annual Employee Drive into a Global CSR Tradition

Jun 17 2025

As Meridianbet once again joins the global celebration of World Blood Donor Day on June 14, the company reaffirms how it transforms corporate values into meaningful action. Across multiple countries and markets, Meridianbet and the Meridianbet Foundation are organizing and participating in voluntary blood donation drives—reiterating a long-standing commitment to public health and community solidarity.

Meridianbet Joins Global Effort to Tackle Blood Shortages, Turning Employee Action into Lifesaving Impact

In 2025, blood donation remains an urgent yet under-addressed issue. Globally, around 118.5 million units of blood are donated each year, yet demand still outpaces supply—especially in low- and middle‑income countries, which account for 60% of donations while representing 84% of the global population.

Recognizing this gap, Meridianbet has transformed its support for healthcare into a coordinated, multinational blood donation campaign, helping national health systems address dangerously low reserves.

From Local Action to Global Movement

What began as a local initiative in Serbia has evolved into a multi-market movement, with employees in Europe, Africa, and Latin America stepping up. These efforts are more than symbolic—they’re part of a wider CSR and ESG strategy, which saw over 293 social impact actions in 2024 alone.

One standout story comes from a Meridianbet employee who has donated blood more than 40 times, becoming a role model across the company. “When you realize that one unit of blood can save up to three lives, it becomes clear—we’re not just giving blood, we’re giving someone another chance,” he said.

Jelena Jocić, spokesperson for the Meridianbet Foundation in Serbia, adds: “We don’t wait for a report to act—we live our values every day. Donating blood is the purest form of giving, and we are proud that our teams across markets are stepping forward, again and again.”

Solidarity in Action: Supporting Healthcare Systems

Meridianbet’s activities are conducted in full coordination with national blood transfusion services and local health authorities, ensuring safety and medical compliance. In Malta, for example, Meridianbet employees supported the country’s blood donation system, which relies heavily on civic responsibility due to Malta’s small population size.

Even one donation can help save a life—and your contribution can make a real difference in the community.

Blood Donation as Part of Meridianbet’s Broader Healthcare Commitment

This global blood drive builds on a wide range of other healthcare initiatives, including:

Donation campaigns for maternity hospitals through the “Scan. Help.” initiative
Direct support to health centers in underserved areas across LATAM and Africa
Breast cancer awareness campaigns, conducted simultaneously across 12 countries

These activities align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being. Meridianbet is also a proud member of the UN Global Compact.

Empowering Employees as Catalysts for Good

Meridianbet’s social impact is driven by its people. In 2024 alone, employees dedicated over 5,027 hours to community activities. The blood donation drive is not only a healthcare effort—it also strengthens team unity and reinforces company values.

With 293 CSR initiatives and over 18,000 direct and indirect beneficiaries in 2024, Meridianbet continues to lead by example.
