I apologise it had been a little while since I last updated you so a belated Merry Christmas & Happy New Year for all of you who celebrated.
And it really was a happy new year with France who introduced the Soft Opt Out system from 1st January this year. Its made me more determined than ever that the UK not be left behind as we're at the forefront in so many other things as a first world country! I like the no nonsense video released below:

The article below is also well worth looking at because it not only comments on the radical change in France but also how in the UK a major reason for our poor donation rates isn't always the number of people willing to give donate. A huge barrier is their relatives blocking their wishes and how Scotland is tackling this issue already...

Last but not least please keeping sharing we're almost at 3000 online!
Happy New Year!
