Organ donation can give someone the chance to live after your death, while living donors can also transform lives by donating a kidney, for example.
It was great to attend NHS Blood and Transplant’s parliamentary event on organ donation and hear from donor families, transplant recipients and campaigners about the difference donation can make.
England has an opt-out system for organ donation, but it is still important to record your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register and talk to your loved ones about whether you would want to donate your organs in the event of your death.
