Supporting Organ Donation Week - Cornea donation

26 September 2024

 

This week the James Paget is supporting NHS Blood and Transplant’s Organ Donation Week, which in 2024 is celebrating 30 years of the NHS Organ Donor Register.

You can read four stories about organ donation via commemorative plaques at our hospital. Three are donor stories and one is about an organ recipient. These can be found along our main entrance corridor, near M&S Food, and outside the main entrance to our Intensive Care Unit on the first floor.

You can also watch a film about cornea donation below.

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 two minutes, and you could go on to save up to nine lives. Confirm your decision at https://www.organdonation.nhs.uk/
