On Call You & Yours we're asking if doctors should be able to assume that you'd be happy to donate your organs when you die. A new report from the NHS Blood and Transplant Service found that the number of people donating organs in the UK has fallen for the first time in a decade. They're calling for a 'revolution' in attitudes towards organ donation. What might bring about that revolution? What would have persuaded the one hundred and twenty families who denied a relative's stated wish to donate? Were you one of them, would you be willing to tell us how you made your decision? Perhaps you or someone you love is on a waiting list, willing families to donate to you. Or perhaps you are a grateful recipient who might tell us the affect it has had on your life.
