Farron launches 2013 organ donor campaign in Parliament - and calls on Hospitals Trust to appoint organ co-ordinator for Kendal
South Lakes MP Tim Farron met with representatives from Transplant 2013 this week to offer his support to the campaign and raise awareness of organ transplantation in Parliament. Transplant 2013 is campaigning to reach the target to increase organ donation after death by 50% in 2013; the current figure stands at just over 25%. Transplant 2013 asked Mr Farron to provide political leadership for the campaign and ensure that organ transplantation is a priority for the government's health policy.
