Don’t forget to put your clocks back this evening!
That will give you an extra hour this weekend so what better opportunity to think about your #organdonation decisions, #register them online, and talk about them with your family.
🤖 Made with AI
Families are more likely to donate if they know your wishes and you’ve registered your decision.
So,
Decide, Record, Share and you could be someone’s #secondchance
#forevergrateful ❤️💛❤️

We often say that cornea donation is not life-saving, but it is life-changing.
By confirming your decision to be a cornea donor you could be giving someone a second chance at a normal life. ➡️ow.ly/bRsc50ZVSoh

Organ donation is an amazing gift; it allows more memories to be made. All those who receive such precious gifts, and their families, are forever grateful to their amazing donors and their families. Your decision could save a life, but sharing it gives your family...1/2

So the message is a simple one:
Know your heart
Know your family history
Don’t ignore the signs
And if something doesn’t feel right, get it checked
One irregular heartbeat led to a diagnosis that changed the course of my life.
And many years later, the gift of another heart from the kindness of a donor allowed that life to continue ❤️💛❤️ #Dontmissabeat #hearthealth #hcm #hearttransplant #forevergrateful
For the final day of Organ Donation Week, there’s really only one thing I want to ask.
If your family were asked tomorrow, would they know what you wanted?
Organ donation has not only saved and improved my life, but that of my brother’s too.
Your decision about organ donation belongs to you but it’s important you make it and then make it known to others.
So whatever you decide:
Decide. Record. Share.
Take a couple of minutes to record your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register — and, just as importantly, tell the people closest to you.
Two minutes now could save lives.
❤️💛❤️

My heart transplant didn’t just save my life. It gave me my life back.
Before my transplant, life had gradually become smaller. Heart failure had diminished what I could do. It had taken my confidence, and was stealing my years.
Every single one of these photographs would never have been taken if my donor hadn’t made their decision and had it supported by their family.
So please, make your choice, record it and let your loved ones know.
You could be giving someone their tomorrows.
❤️💛❤️
