What is the impact of organ donation and how can that message be transmitted to the wider public? That’s just one of the questions facing healthcare professionals, donor families, and transplant recipients who recently gathered for the 2025 National Organ Donation Conference in Galway.
The theme for the conference was “Conversations That Matter”. At the event John Burns, the former Deputy Principal of Rice College gave a talk on donor family experience. His younger brother benefitted from two liver transplants, while his older brother was an organ donor.
John joined Sally-Ann Barrett on Tuesday's Morning Focus to share more on this.

Shannon And Carrigaholt Post Offices To Stay Open As New Contractors Appointed
Post Offices in Carrigaholt and Shannon will remain open after new contractors were appointed at both locations.
In a statement to Clare FM, An Post has confirmed there will be no reduction or disruption to services in either location, although Shannon's office may be relocated to a new unit within Shannon Town Centre.
It brings a period of uncertainty to an end for both communities after the former Postmasters in Carrigaholt and Shannon tendered their resignations in September.
Shannon Fine Gael Councillor Tony Mulcahy has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that it's a huge relief for the town.
