LH group covers the following companies under its umbrella, LH, Quintessentially and High Street Labels. About 35 employees from LH Group and High Street Labels attended the presentation.
The session covered issues like brain death and how it is different from cardiac death, organ donation rate, legal aspects of organ donation and myths around organ donation. The participants wanted to know the hospitals in Delhi – NCR doing organ transplantation and the role of government in creating awareness around this very important but underplayed out area. A very interesting debate ensued as to how one can pledge organs and a possibility of Indian Organ Donor Register enabling individuals to record their legal decision to becoming an organ or tissue donor after death. 5 participants pledged their organs and few took extra for their family members.
