The principle aim of the World Transplant Games is to raise public awareness of the importance and benefits of organ donation. This is done by demonstrating the health and fitness that can be achieved post-transplant. Equally, the World Games aim to encourage all recipients to remain fit and healthy post transplant. Athletes are our ambassadors for the value of organ donation and give hope to people on transplant waiting lists.

The World Transplant Games give recipients the motivation to strive towards full rehabilitation through exercise, camaraderie and healthy living. They also provide them with a way of saying ‘thank you’ to those who made it all possible – the donors, their families, health professionals, researchers and carers - without them, there would be nobody at the starting line.
