Overview
SADP endeavours to work
together in partnership with existing organisations to achieve the following
objectives:
To
research, study and understand the social, cultural, moral and ethical
issues associated with organ donation and transplants amongst South
Asians
To
identify and challenge key beliefs and mindsets which act as barriers
to organ donation
To
raise overall awareness of the high incidence of renal failure and
the imbalance of organs available from within the community
To
encourage and motivate South Asians to become organ donors for the
benefit of the community.
We have a great deal more information relevant to Asians
and Organ Donation. Please take a look at the following pages:

WE ARE
SUPPORTING THE 'Live Life Then Give Life' campaign
There is a serious and increasing shortage of organ donors in the UK. Last year over 400 people died whilst awaiting an organ transplant and there are currently over 6500 seriously ill people on the waiting list whose lives are dependent on the gift of organ donation. Organ donation affects everyone. You are more likely to need a transplant than to ever be able to donate an organ... for more information see www.livelifethengivelife.co.uk .
