Stockton Heath Tennis Club

We're delighted to share that Club member Ian represented the transplant community at the Transplant Active - Home of the British Transplant Games in Sheffield, winning:

🥈 Silver in the Men’s 50–59 Tennis
🥇 Gold in the Men’s 50–59 Squash

Ian received a life-changing kidney transplant from his son, Dan, in June 2017 after his kidney function fell below 10% due to hereditary Polycystic Kidney Disease. Before the transplant, even walking up a flight of stairs was difficult because of his extremely low energy levels.

The British Transplant Games bring together teams from hospitals across the UK to celebrate the gift of life, demonstrate the benefits of transplantation and raise awareness of organ donation. This year’s Games were the largest in the event’s 48-year history, with 2,857 registered attendees taking part across 26 sports.

A truly inspiring story and a remarkable sporting achievement. Congratulations, Ian, from everyone at SHLTC!

📅 Don’t miss the deadline!
