<p>In July 2013 NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) published the United Kingdom strategy “Taking Organ Transplantation to 2020” to further increase donation and transplantation rates. NHSBT worked closely to develop this strategy with stakeholders in the transplant community and the wider public.</p><p>The new strategy builds on work undertaken to increase deceased donation rates by 50% between 2008 and 2013. It aims to provide the UK organ donation and transplantation community with what it needs. to match the best deceased organ donation and transplantation rates in the world over the next seven years.
