The NHS wants a million more people in the UK to sign up for the organ donor register. It wants to tackle what it calls the "growing dilemma" of declining family consent rates and ensure more lifesaving transplants can go ahead. One point four million people in Wales have already made the decision to donate their organs after their death. Are you on the donor register? What's your experience of organ donation? How often do you get the opportunity to use your Welsh language skills? Here in Wales, we have a goal of one million Welsh speakers by 2050... But, research from Swansea University has suggested that reduced opportunities, lower confidence and the dominance of English in education or employment may contribute to less frequent Welsh use. Does that sound like a similar story to you? And we're celebrating Playday - the national day for play. Organisations are calling for more inclusive and welcoming spaces where children and young people of all ages and abilities can play freely and feel part of their communities. So, what are your memories of playing as a child? What games did you play? Do you still play games with your family?
