Everyone feels different about organ donation, but most people are aware of its life-saving importance.
Here’s where you can find out more, before making your choice.
Remember – whatever you decide, it’s crucial to make sure your wishes are known, so be sure to tell your loved ones. You can now choose to donate, choose not to donate, withdraw your details from the NHS Organ Donor Register, or update them.

You can withdraw from the NHS Organ Donor Register at any time. This does however mean that your wishes will no longer be on record. So make sure that you inform your loved ones of your choices on organ donation. Or you can simply change and update your preferences instead – for example, what organs you specifically do or don’t want to donate.
