Kate Stainsby, 41, died last Tuesday – two days after she became trapped underwater while on an expedition at Hobdale Beck, off the River Rawthey, near Sedbergh.
Her partner of 16 years, Paul Simpson, of Swinton, near Malton, said he and the couple’s three-year-old daughter, Hannah, had been left devastated by their loss – but felt comfort in knowing Kate’s death would help save the lives of others.
He has asked readers to consider backing The Press’s Lifesavers campaign, which aims to raise awareness of organ donation and to urge people to join the register after the news that Kate’s organs have gone on to help 20 people after her death.
Mr Simpson said: “If there is anything positive to come from this, it is the fact that Kate was able to donate her organs. It is something she was passionate about.
