About this website

This website aims to provide guidance and information on organ transplantation in the UK, to help you gain a greater understanding of the process and make better informed choices. However, every situation is unique and the information cannot cover every possible question you may have. 

The information on this website is not designed to replace discussions with the transplant teams caring for you. Your transplant team know you and your medical condition best and can give you more detailed information to inform and support your decisions. 

This website has been developed by NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) in partnership with the British Transplantation Society (BTS) and transplant patient groups. It is not designed for patients outside the UK as the process differs between countries.

NHSBT and the BTS do not accept any responsibility or liability for any loss or damage caused to any persons as a result of any reliance placed upon, or decisions made as a result of, information given on this website.
