TV presenter and soccer star Gary Lineker, right, has joined a campaign to recruit a million lifesavers.
The former England captain is appealling to people to go on the NHS Organ Donor Register to give the gift of life to others after their death.
Gary said: "Transplants give people a new lease of life. Sadly many don't get that chance, simply because there are not enough suitable organs available.
"You can save a life, simply by filling in a form."
