Welcome to the Register. Now please talk to your family
Your family will always be involved before organ donation goes ahead, and they could override your decision if they aren’t sure what you want. So, talk to them and leave them certain.

Tips to help you talk to your loved ones about organ donation

Download one of our organ donor cards and use it as a prompt to start talking, or use our pages to find out some key information
