University of Manchester - We shall remember you

A service of thanksgiving has been held in memory of people who have donated their bodies to a university in the past year. The cadavers donated to the University of Manchester are used for the teaching of anatomy to medical, dental and science students. Each year, the university accepts about 40 bodies donated by people from the Manchester area, which will benefit about 2,000 students. It is the third such memorial service that the university has held to remember the donors.
