Featured by @BBCNWT ❤️ We were so proud to see our Renal Transplant Department appearing on BBC News North West last night. The BBC followed the story of in-laws, Lesley and Chris, as Lesley saved her son-in-law’s life by donating her kidney. (1/2) bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0…

There are three main blood tests that will determine if a patient and a potential donor are a #kidney match. These are blood typing, tissue typing and cross-matching. Learn more on #Transplantation ➡️ worldkidneyday.org/facts/top… #WorldKidneyDay #KidneyHealthForAll

Apparently it’s tradition for the transplant registrar to take a picture with the islet cells when doing an islet cell transplant at @MRITransplant so here is said picture 🤷🏻‍♀️ operating is cool, but it’s not every day you get to agitate cells into a portal vein!

Paul donated his kidney via the sharing scheme for his daughter. Paul's wife has previously donated her kidney to their other daughter. A pin badge is given by @NHSBT as a gift to recognize their incredible act of generosity. Paul made it into a necklace. #OrganDonationWeek
