More than 30 people have died in Devon in the last five years due to the shortage of organs for transplant.

As well as the tragic loss of 33 lives NHS Blood and Transplant says there are currently 168 people in the county waiting for a transplant.

The service is highlighting the figures to encourage people to spell out their decision to be an organ donor during National Transplant Week 2014 which runs to July 13
