ALMOST 30,000 Lancashire people have signed up to leave the legacy of life since the Lancashire Evening Post launched its campaign to recruit more organ donors.

In January last year, we launched our Lancashire: Giving The Gift Of Life campaign with the aim of spurring on an extra 2,016 people to sign up as donors during 2016.

But figures show more than 10 times that number have joined the NHS Organ Donor Register with 28,861 people joining from Lancashire alone. Organ donor chiefs have praised the Lancashire Evening Post for the campaign Ben Armstrong, specialist nurse in organ Donation at NHS Blood and Transplant says: “The Lancashire Evening Post’s campaign to promote organ donation will have inspired many people to join the NHS Organ Donor Register which is fantastic news.

That'll be fun when Yorkshire folk with renal failure get Lancashire kidneys. It's a layer of compatibility they'll have to consider, for sure🙂
