Volunteering

There simply would not be a Transplant Games if it weren’t for the hundreds of volunteers who never fail to put their hands up to support us. It is with gratitude that we welcome and thank the people from many walks of life who join us every two years.

Volunteers have acclaimed the Games as a truly moving and life changing experience. The unique atmosphere the Games create and its participants are unforgettable.

There are many roles to undertake as a volunteer. Every skill, even if it’s a friendly smile, is enough to help make these Games a living breathing success.
