A vision for organ donation (From Western Telegraph)

Pembrokeshire people and businesses have been busy supporting the Kidney Wales Foundation.

In the recent Kidney Wales Foundation charity half-marathon held in Cardiff, Charles Davies, from Haverfordwest was one of the oldest runners and completed his race in less than an hour.

The Donate Wales, tell a loved one campaign is being led by the Kidney Wales Foundation. It has resulted in some of the country’s biggest charities coming together to tackle the shortage of donors.

Manager of Haverfordwest Specsavers, Andy Britton, said: “We are delighted to be supporting this campaign. We have already been encouraging customers to join the organ donor register and tell their loved ones just how important organ donation is through leaflets and posters."
