A much-loved dad who died after being attacked on a night out with his girlfriend has been honoured with an award for organ donation.
Danny Humble had been enjoying his first night out since lockdown restrictions eased in May 2021 and was walking home with his girlfriend when he was attacked by a group of teenagers. The 35-year-old, from Cramlington, tragically died from his injuries.
His mum Deb explained that she "couldn't bear to think that was it for Danny", so with the consent of family spoke about the option of organ donation with nurses at the hospital. She knew Danny agreed with organ donation following a previous conversation they had together and was aware that her son had been fit and healthy.
