“I completely agree with the campaign. If one of my organs could help a person enjoy a more healthy time with their loved ones then I would be pleased to have done a good thing to help them. Each year people die waiting for a transplant and I want to help. I signed up online by Googling ‘organ donor form’ and the registration form came straight up. It took 30 seconds to complete it.”
If you want to sign up to donate your organs, go to www.organdonation.nhs.uk or telephone 0300 1232323.
