The 2026 Donor Run is a fun run that will help raise awareness of the NHS Organ Donor Register, benefits of Organ Transplantation, and the Anthony Nolan Register while paying tribute to the Live Donors and Donor Families who have given the gift of life. There is no chip timing for the Donor Run.
More than 8,000 people in the UK currently need a transplant, sadly up to 3 people die each day waiting for a transplant.
Transplant Active is the brand adopted by the largest national charity promoting active recovery for transplant recipients and increasing awareness of the benefits of organ donation. Despite “Deemed Consent”, we actively promote the importance of more people telling their family and friends that they wish to donate, so that families do not refuse to give consent because of a lack of knowledge.
