This is Bath
A Bath student who almost lost her sister is meeting with ministers today to discuss ways to boost number of people on the organ donor register.
Abby Thackray, 21, of Lower Bristol Road, was 16 when her older sister Emily needed a double lung transplant.
Now along with her friend Hope Milne, 15, whose younger brother had a bowel transplant after intestinal failure, she is meeting with Shadow Health Minister Anne Milton and the minister with responsibility for Political and Constitutional Reform Mark Harper.
They will be discussing the possibility of adding a box on electoral forms to allow people to tick to sign up to the organ donor register.
