The law around organ donation is changing in the United Kingdom. From Spring 2020, all adults in England will be considered an organ donor when they die unless they had recorded a decision to opt out. This law was brought in due to the shortage of donors and the amount of people dying whilst waiting on the transplant wait list.

This has stirred a bit of an interesting debate in the country and in today's podcast episode, Bimbola and Jo were joined by Elizabeth Ayelabola and Uche Lottee-Anajemba to discuss this interesting topic and come at it from a cultural perspective. Statistics have shown that black families are less likely to say yes to organ donation when approached in hospitals compared to white and asian families.

In today's podcast, Bimbola and Jo were joined by Eldee The Don, a former Nigerian-American Rapper and a fellow podcaster to discuss this very important topic. Growing up in Africa, most families were brought up with the fathers working hard to provide for their families and mothers were left to take care of the children and provide the emotional support required. Whilst we appreciate time is changing and more women are now able to work and also contribute financially to the home, there's still a lot of work to be done in ensuring that the emotional support needed by the children is provided by both parents.
