A Wirral dad donated a kidney to a total stranger on his 65th birthday.
Paul Dixon, 74 and from Birkenhead, became a 'living donor' after watching breakfast TV a year earlier. Paul, who worked at Ford Motor Company and Jaguar Land Rover in Halewood for 41 years, was initially met with shock at his decision.
Paul first join the organ donation register, but he had no idea you could do it while still alive until 2012 when he watched BBC commentator Richard Pitman on breakfast TV talking about donating his kidney.
