What is Organ Donation Week?
Organ Donation Week is a week-long campaign that takes place every year, with the aim of raising awareness about the incredible gift of organ donation.
The more people we reach, the more people who register their decision to become organ donors after they die, and the more lives we save. There are 7,600 people in need of an organ transplant right now, let’s bring hope to them and their families.
How you can help
- Register to become an organ donor online or via the NHS App
- Go pink to highlight the need for more organ donors and to remind people to register their decision
- Show your support for organ donation on social media
With your help, we can make this the best Organ Donation Week yet.
