Petition Action

Opt-out organ donation

Additional Information

There are many killers in the UK, but one of the top ones is there not being enough organs to give to the people that need them. Opt-out means that everyone is automatically donating their organs when they die, and you would have to sign a form to say you would NOT like to donate your organs after death. I would like it changed because it could be you who needs an organ, and if the system is changed when you need them, then you will have a high chance of surviving. If it isn't changed by then, then you will have a high chance of not surviving.

The action I would like them to take is to change the organ donation system from opt-in to opt-out. Help change the system, for a better future.

There is already a petition calling for an opt out system but also, this petition does not satisfy the criteria for publication as you have not provided your full first name and full last name.
