There are less than 100 days to go until the British Transplant Games get underway at the University of Warwick.

The British Transplant Games is a four-day event that brings together transplant survivors, including children as young as five, from across the UK to compete in a range of sports including athletics, badminton, cycling, swimming, and many more.

The games aim to encourage more people to sign up to the organ donor register and to celebrate the gift of life that organ donation can provide.

The university will host the 2023 games from July 27 to 30, in partnership with the West Midlands Organ Donation Services and Coventry City Council.

For the first time ever, the games are coming to Coventry and most of the athletic events will take place at the University of Warwick's state of the art sports facilities.

Chris Hunt, commercial director at the University of Warwick, said: "We are thrilled to be hosting the 2023 British Transplant Games at our campus.

"This event is a wonderful celebration of the resilience and determination of transplant athletes, and Warwick is proud to support them as they compete and inspire others to become organ donors."

The University of Warwick has a strong history of supporting health initiatives, including medical research and partnerships with the NHS.
