About TSCUK

Swimming can play a powerful role in recovery and long-term health following an organ transplant. As a low-impact, full-body exercise, it helps improve cardiovascular fitness, build strength, support mobility, and boost overall wellbeing. For many transplant recipients, returning to the water represents an important milestone in rebuilding fitness and confidence after transplant and enjoying an active, healthy lifestyle.

A core mission of Transplant Swimming Club UK is to raise awareness of the importance of organ donation. Every member’s participation in competition is a visible reminder of the lives transformed through transplantation. By competing at Masters events across the country, our swimmers help spark conversations, share their stories, and highlight the ongoing need for people to register as organ donors.

Members of Transplant Swimming Club UK are encouraged to train in whatever way works best for them. Many swimmers train independently at local pools, follow personal training plans, or join sessions with nearby Masters or community clubs. This approach allows athletes to develop at their own pace while remaining connected to a network of transplant swimmers who share similar experiences and goals.

By registering with Transplant Swimming Club UK, members gain the opportunity to enter local Masters competitions under the club name. This creates a visible presence for transplant athletes within the wider swimming community while giving members the chance to compete, challenge themselves, and celebrate what is possible after transplant.
