Wall of Life


Over 10,000 people in the UK desperately need a transplant. Three of which die every day waiting. At an attempt to reduce this number NHS Blood and Transplant has launched the Wall of Life campaign, encouraging sign ups to the NHS Organ Donor Register.

The Wall of Life is an online mosaic created from people's photos posted on the site, showing their support for organ donation. These photos combined make up the image of two-year old Louisa McGregor-Smith whose life was saved by a heart transplant in 2007. Louisa was just five months old. At least 60,000 people need to upload their photos on to the Wall to build Louisa's image.

Louisa's mother, Samantha said: "We are so grateful that our baby girl was given a second chance and keen that everyone knows the good that comes out of signing up to NHS Organ Donation Register."
