Persuasive Speech

So, how can you help? All you have to do is get in touch with your local doctor and he will tell you all you need to know. You fill out one form, and receive a card; it really is that easy. Then, once you have passed away in many years to come, your organs will be removed and will give somebody else the chance of life.
After a transplant of a vital organ, the average survival rate is over 80%. A massive increase from the 20% that would live without the surgery.
Some people worry. Will they be left open after the surgery as they are already dead,  in an accident will the doctor who is caring you do his upmost best to revive you if he knows you are registered as an organ donar? The answers to these are simple. You will be treated with the up most respect in the surgery and the same procedures apply to the body as a living body.

There are over 16 million people on the NHS Organ Donor Register, but around 400 people die every year in the UK while waiting for a transplant. Even though there are millions of people on the register, most of them will not die in circumstances where they are able to donate their organs. So it is important that more people join the register.

Many people would be willing to recieve a donated organ but not so many people are willing to give one. Register to be an organ donar and change peoples lives.
