The Gift of Life Memorial

The Donor Family Network has announced a £250,000 fundraising appeal to create a National Memorial for Organ Donors - The Gift of Life Memorial will be situated at the National Memorial Arbortetum in Staffordshire with regional memorials planned around the country.

The Gift of Life Memorial will be a place of reflection, remembrance and recognition that can be visited by all of the transplant community as well as by the general public.

The design features a central mosaic featuring a butterfly and a forget-me-not made from bronze and glass.

Liverpool Study

A Liverpool study wants to find out about the experiences of South Asian and African Caribbean families who were asked to donate their relative's organs after their death.
If you were asked about organ donation after your relative's death, and if you are from a South Asian/Asian British (Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi or Sri Lanken heritgae) or African-Caribbean/Black British (Caribbean Heritage) ethnic background living in the North West of England or Yorkshire, would you be willing to discuss your experiences with the project team.
