An 18-year-old student who died of cardiac arrest in her university halls is one of Merseyside's organ donor heroes.
Emily Jane Gore, from Prescot, took ill while studying at the University of Manchester in early 2020. Emily suffered a cardiac arrest in her halls of residence and was rushed to hospital but never recovered.
Emily's family said the teenager had re-joined the organ donor register when she was 16 and, because of this, she was able to help four people, including a child, following her passing. Emily is just one of Merseyside's organ donor heroes - and the NHS have urged people to join the register and become a lifesaver.
