Former easyJet boss says the sky’s the limit after kidney donation
When his brother Per suffered kidney failure in 2008, donating a kidney was an easy decision for former easyJet CEO, Johan Lundgren. That transplant transformed life for Per, as he was freed from dialysis, while Johan has continued to thrive with one kidney.
Johan and Per sat down with us to discuss the life-changing impact of living kidney donation. They reflect on the opportunity for others to follow in Johan’s footsteps, by donating a kidney to one of almost 7,000 people desperately waiting for a kidney transplant in the UK.
With the number of people on the transplant waiting list the highest in 17 years - and around six people dying every week whilst waiting - the need for donors is more urgent than ever.
