Surgeon's appeal for International Liverpool Transplant Initiative funding

Medics from Gaza are undergoing training in Liverpool as part of the Liverpool International Transplant Initiative.

Surgeons from the Royal Liverpool Hospital want to establish a locally run transplant unit in the conflict hit Gaza strip.

Their priorities are to fund a tissue typing laboratory as well as other medical equipment, which could cost in the region of £500,000.
