11th European Day for Organ Donation & Transplantation
Sunday, 4th October 2009

Sunday, 4th October marked the 11th European Day for Organ Donation & Transplantation.

This organ donor awareness event, which was organised by the Council of Europe, aimed to raise awareness and encourage social debate in European countries of the importance of organ donation and subsequent transplantation as life saving, to express solidarity and support to all those in need of organ transplantation and to honour all organ donors and their families. It was also an opportunity to thank all transplantation professionals throughout Europe whose work helped save and improve the quality of lives for so many people who suffer from organ failure.
