All 50 survey respondents were invited to volunteer for interview; 13 expressed interest, 8 ultimately provided informed consent, and all 8 were interviewed. No further participant selection was undertaken by the research team.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Four themes were generated beneath the overarching analytic thread of making sense of tissue donation across the rare tumour pathway: tissue donation as something good coming from something bad; tissue donation during shock and overload; making sense of tissue donation over time; and trust and support around tissue donation. Participants described the need for trusted information support that extended beyond leaflets while complementing clinician\u2010led discussion.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Within this small, self\u2010selected volunteer sample, participants' accounts suggest that tissue\u2010donation consent may be better supported as a staged, relational and revisitable process rather than treated as a single procedural event.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Lived Experience or Public Contribution<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>People with lived experience informed survey development and testing.
