A RECORD number of organ and tissue donations have been made this year in Tasmania.
Donations from 15 deceased Tasmanian donors, with support from their families, have led to 55 organs transforming the lives of 51 transplant recipients.
DonateLife Tasmania state medical director Dr Andrew Turner said the state's donation rate this year was twice the national average.
"Historically Tasmania's donation rate has been 8 per million -- around 4 per year -- but this year, with 15 donations, it's 30 per million, which is twice the national average," he said.
"The Tasmanian population has been very generous and has changed and saved the lives of 55 people."
