The chief executive of the Office of the Chief Rabbi has urged members of the Jewish community to sign-up to the NHS's new organ donation system, which could go live in as little as three weeks' time.
Ari Jesner, whose brother Yoni was killed in a suicide bombing in Israel in 2002 and his kidney donated to a Palestinian girl, saving her life, issued the call to arms in a virtual symposium on Sunday, as senior rabbis and clinicians discussed changes to organ donation law in England and the implications of this on Jewish law.
