Organ Donation

Organ donation is when you decide to give an organ to save or transform the life of someone else. You can donate some organs while you are alive, however, most organ and tissue donations come from people who have died.

Over 8000 people are currently in need of a transplant to save or improve their lives.

You can register to become a donor, or opt out of being a donor, on the NHS website https://www.organdonation.nhs.uk/register-your-decision/

If you decide to become a donor, you can choose to donate all, or only some of your organs.

In August 2% of patients did not attend their booked appointments.

📅That's 128 appointments wasted 🤯

We know people forget things, cancelling GP appointments being one of them.

❌ Please remember to cancel your appointment if you don’t need it and give us as much notice as possible so that it can be offered to someone else.

Thank you to all our patients that attended or cancelled their booked appointments 😇
