When Linda and her family woke up one day last year, the last thing they imagined they would be doing is saying goodbye to their son Glenn and making the decision to donate his organs but that’s exactly what happened. Despite Glenn no longer being here, he was able to transform the lives of at least three people.

In the first episode of Talking Transplant, we are joined by Linda and Associate Professor Helen Opdam, one of our Intensive Care Specialists and the National Medical Director at the Organ and Tissue Authority.

We chat about why letting your family know that you’re an organ donor is one of the most important conversations you can have, some practical tips on how to raise the topic and bust some common myths around donation.

If you haven’t done so already sign up today and become an organ and tissue donor. For more information, please visit Donate Life.
