South Asian Development Partnership is pleased to support the recent publication on a new book "Thank you for life", published by the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) for NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) with support from the Department of Health.

A moving new book of letters written to transplant patients to their donors and donor relatives has been launched to show the positive side of organ donation and encourage more people to sign up to the organ register.

Proceeds from sales of the book will be used to promote organ registration. For further information, please visit: http://bookshop.rcplondon.ac.uk/details.aspx?e=324

Deepak Mahtani, a transpant recepient and International Director of SADP, comments:
"There are many medical and technical books about transplants available, but very few that reflect the life-changing stories of recepients. This book is a collection that reflect the gratitude of both patients and families to their donors for their generosity in giving them one of the most precious gifts - an organ. I hope this book will encourage more to sign up to the organ donor register."
