Organ Donation in the Black Community

Mar 19, 2020, 03:00 PM

There is a huge lack of black organ donors and huge stigmas around the topic, so in this episode the Dope Black Women dispel some of those preconceptions, reflect on their own attitudes towards organ donation, as well as Leanne's story of being an organ donor herself. 

We also hear from Rachel Rowson, Regional Manager of the London Organ Donation Team, who talks us through all of the facts and statistics, as well as the change in law that is coming into play in May 2020 in regards to organ donation.  For more information you can visit www.organdonation.nhs.uk
