it is vital everyone throughout the UK shares their organ donation wishes with their next of kin as ultimately it is they who will make the final decision.
All of us at #ShareYourWishes would like to wish you and all those whom you love a very Happy and Healthy New Year. 🎉
Together we will continue in 2026 to encourage people to share their wishes about their organ donation decisions and share the difference organ donation makes.
