Lisa’s Story

Tell us a bit about yourself, who you are as a person?

I am 31, a Probation Officer and have worked in the criminal justice system since leaving university. I don’t have any children of my own but have been with my partner for ten years after meeting at college! We have a dog together called Penny and love taking her on walks in the countryside on our time off.

How did you hear about egg donation?

I heard about egg donation from a colleague when I worked in the prison service as she had donated and told me all about it. I had never really heard about it before and thought it was an amazing thing to do, so I started to do my research.

Why did you choose to donate with us?

My colleague recommended me, and the website's information was brilliant, and the staff were really supportive and helpful.

What did you enjoy most about donating?

The feeling that you have helped someone to fulfil their dream of becoming a family.

Did you get the care you needed every step of the way?

Yes, I have donated four times, all with Manchester Fertility, and each time has been faultless.

Would you donate with us again, if yes, please say why?

I have donated four times, so yes!
