General:

The law around #OrganDonation is changing next spring 2023 to help save more lives. #DáithísLaw will mean if organ donation is a possibility after you die, it will be considered that all adults agree to being an organ donor unless they choose to register a decision not to donate on the @NHSOrganDonorRegister or are in an excluded group.
