In addition to social impact of promoting the benefits of organ donation and celebrating the Gift of Life, the media impact for the Games was excellent, with a reach of over 900 million opportunities to see, read or hear about the Games and related messaging. Highlights included coverage from both ITV Central and BBC East Midlands Today, who both broadcast live shows from the Opening Ceremony at Nottingham Castle.

2024 Nottingham
2024 saw the British Transplant Games head to Nottingham for the first time in history, attracting 56 teams, over 200 hundred volunteers and a Games family exceeding 2,800 people.
Both the Nottingham Adults and Children’s team grew from a combined 53 competitors to 70 competitors total, and it is hoped more will join after a successful Games. The Games Donor run, supported by Nottingham Hospitals Charitable Trust and based in Wollaton Park, was a closed event available only to the Games family and was a sellout, amassing 1,900 runners.
The event generated approx. 8000 bed nights across Nottinghamshire hotels spread over a period of 4 or 5 nights bringing an economic impact to the Region of approximately £2.4million.

This was a fantastic first Games for Nottingham and an excellent showcase of their many sporting facilities, outstanding Castle, Wollaton
Hall and leafy Nottinghamshire suburbs. Nottingham was a place that many of the Games participants looked to revisit as tourists!
