Welcome to Transplant Games & Recreational Fund

The TGRF charity enables us to take the Great Ormond Street Renal Transplant Patients to the Transplant Games each year, and provide them with tracksuits and t-shirts to compete in, and allows us to subsidise the cost for each family wishing to attend.

The British Transplant Games are organised on behalf of the Transplant Sports Association of Great Britain http://www.transplantsport.org.uk/

The Transplant Games started back in 1978 in Portsmouth by Maurice Slapak, who at the time was a Consultant Transplant Surgeon. Approximately 100 participants took part in the first Games in a one day event. Over the past 20 years, the British Transplant Games has grown to a four day annual event for over 500 competitors and nearly 1000 supporters.
