Anatomy Bequests

Bodies donated for anatomical examination are a vital resource for medical education, and play a crucial role in producing practitioners of the highest standing, to work both in the United Kingdom and abroad. Anatomy is the study of the structure and function of the human body and is one of the most fundamental subjects studied by medical students. Bodies donated for anatomical examination may also be used in the education and training of other healthcare professionals including doctors training to be surgeons, dentists, nurses and physiotherapists. Ultimately, the skills and knowledge gained from the use of donated bodies will benefit future patients

For further information about how to donate your body, please contact Mrs Sandra Dye.
