A short verbatim series spotlighting stories of organ donation

COVID-19 has impacted severely on organ donations.

There is an urgent need for donors from Black, Asian and mixed heritage communities as organs from people of the same ethnicity have the best chance of a match.

We have used actors to recreate the real stories of Simran, Aari and Ritchie. Watch their stories below and register your organ donation decision here: www.bitly.com/organregister

 

Watch the story of Simran who waited 5 years for a kidney transplant and hear the difference receiving a transplant made to her life. Find out more about organ donation or register your organ donation decision here: www.bitly.com/organregister

Watch the story of Aari whose parents Sina and Jay took the decision to donate his organs after he died after an accident and hear the difference this made to other children. Find out more about organ donation or register your organ donation decision here: www.bitly.com/organregister

 

Watch the story of Ritchie who donated one of his kidneys to his aunt, giving her a new lease of life, and find out what inspired his decision. Find out more about organ donation or register your organ donation decision here: www.bitly.com/organregister
