Mr Prynn said: "My parents encouraged me to start giving blood and my first blood donation was in 1965. I feel that if you are willing to accept blood then you should be willing to give blood."
Forty two long-serving donors were recognised at the ceremony.
Jonathan Sewell, lead donor relations manager at NHSBT, said: "We are so proud of all our blood donors and reaching the 75th or 100th milestone is definitely something to be proud of. These ceremonies are a great way for us to give something back to our donors."
