Removed organs to be laid to rest

A grim chapter in the Alder Hey organ scandal will come to an end this month when the last human remains in the possession of the hospital are laid to rest.

A final burial service will take place for tissue samples, organs and foetuses which were never claimed by relatives.

The interment, on January 29, will be followed by a memorial service next month and the dedication of a memorial garden, the Liverpool hospital said.
