More than 250 people pledged to give the gift of life by signing the organ donor register at an event at the Kirkgate shopping centre, in the city centre.
Bradford Bulls player Chev Walker was at Saturday’s event, with representatives of NHS Blood and Transplant, as part of the campaign by the NHS Organ Donor Register.
Also there was Abrar Hussain, 54, of Bradford, who works as a catering assistant at St Luke’s Hospital and is alive today thanks to a liver transplant in August 2010.
He said: “I was delighted to be able to support NHS Blood and Transplant’s campaign to encourage more black and Asian people in Bradford to sign up to the NHS Organ Donor Register.
