The NSW / ACT branch of Transplant Australia has members from all corners of NSW including the ACT and surrounds. Transplant Australia ACT is a sub-branch of Transplant Australia NSW. Both branches hold recreational, sporting and social events.
TA NSW meets about once a month at venues ranging from Eastern Sydney to Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains. Meetings are held at least once each year in the Wollongong and Newcastle areas. These meetings normally incorporate a "Competition and Development" day where activities include ten pin bowling, lawn bowls, golf, archery, eight ball and petanque and a picnic day. Each activity is run to encourage participation. Existing skill levels are not necessary - we always welcome newcomers and complete beginners.
TA ACT also holds regular meetings and Competition and Development sporting activity and social days as well as regular weekly sporting evenings such as ten pin bowling and badminton.
The NSW / ACT branch also hold the annual Miracle Dinner, a fund-raising event where to assist transplant recipients to attend the Australian and/or World Transplant Games. This helps to maintain the good standing of Australia as a world leader in Transplant Sports. Many NSW / ACT members have attended both the Australian and World Transplant Games and find them a wonderful and worthwhile experience. The Games are a special time to demonstrate the high quality of life that is achieved following a transplant.
At each of these events run by TA NSW and ACT, people are able to chat with others who have been through similar circumstances, including family members of deceased donors, living donors, transplant recipients and supporters.
Membership fees: $15 Individual, $25 a family.
