Children under 12 may not register as a donor in the Donor Register, nor may anyone else do this on their behalf. Doctors may only use the organs or tissue of a deceased child if they have obtained consent from the child’s parents or carers.
Young people aged 12 to 15 can register as an organ donor. However, the parents or carers have the legal authority to override their child’s wishes on organ donation, even when this is registered, until the child turns 16.
Young people not listed on the Register are automatically sent a donor form after their 18th birthday. The government hopes this will encourage more people to become organ donors.
