Your voice matters: help shape the future of liver transplant allocation

March 3, 2025

We are working with NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) to support their review of the National Liver Offering Scheme (NLOS), the system used to allocate and distribute livers from deceased donors to patients on the transplant waiting list.

Introduced in 2018, the scheme has been formally monitored by a group of liver doctors, with feedback gathered from both patients and healthcare professionals. While it has received positive responses, concerns have also been raised. This review will assess whether the scheme should continue in its current form or if changes are needed.

To ensure that patient voices are heard, we are seeking input from those who have undergone a liver transplant, individuals currently awaiting a transplant, and their families. As part of the review, we invite you to share your experiences and insights by completing the NLOS survey.

Before completing the survey, please take some time to read through the following questions and answers below and/or watch the NLOS Q & A video. This will help you better understand the context and provide informed responses.
