Flags shall adorn two Lincolnshire hospitals each time an individual becomes an organ donor. Lincoln County Hospital and Pilgrim Hospital, Boston, will hoist the organ donation flags in tribute to individuals whose generosity led to the saving of other lives. These flags are a purchase made possible through the support of the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Charity. Anthony Clarkson, Director of Organ and Tissue Donation at NHS Blood and Transplant, commented on the initiative, saying every flag hoisted stands as a potent symbol of hope, benevolence, and the enduring legacy of the donors and their families.
