30th birthday

Together with The Bridgewater Hall, we’re shining a light on the importance of organ donation today by turning the stage pink.

 

Organ Donation Week 2024 will be held Monday 23 September to Sunday 29 September. All around the country NHS Blood and Transplant are encouraging people to confirm their support for organ donation by adding their name and decision to the NHS Organ Donor Register on its 30th birthday!

 

 Every day someone in the UK dies waiting for a transplant, due to a shortage of people donating. Right now, there are around 7, 600 people waiting for a transplant, including over 250 children. However, as only 1,400 people die in circumstances each year where organ donation is possible, every donation is precious and can make such a difference.

 

 As the NHS Organ Donor Register turns 30, it’s just as important as ever to add your name and decision, because families are more likely to support the decision of someone who has done so. It only takes 2 minutes, and you could go on to save up to nine lives.
