Supporting Team NI on the Road to the 2025 World Transplant Games

In August 2025, the World Transplant Games (WTG) will welcome athletes, supporters, and teams from around the globe to Dresden, Germany. For the first time, Team Northern Ireland will compete as a standalone nation — a proud and historic moment for everyone involved in transplant sport across the region.

At HANNON Transport, we are honoured to be the main corporate sponsor for the Northern Ireland Transplant Games Team. As part of our commitment, we are providing essential transport and logistics support to help the team get their kit, equipment, and supplies safely from Northern Ireland to Dresden in time for the Games.

A Special Journey for a Special Team

The World Transplant Games is more than just a sporting event — it is a celebration of life, courage, and the incredible gift of organ donation. Every competitor has a unique story of resilience, and the Games offer a platform to raise awareness about the importance of transplantation and donor registration.

For Team NI, travelling to Dresden marks a milestone:

• First appearance as a standalone team at the World Transplant Games
• A chance to showcase the talent, determination, and spirit of Northern Ireland’s transplant community
• An opportunity to inspire more people to join the organ donor register

Our Role as Logistics Partner

Transporting sports equipment, team kits, and essential supplies to an international event requires planning, precision, and care. Our team has coordinated a dedicated branded van for the journey, ensuring that all gear arrives safely and on time.

As with all our logistics projects — whether for commercial clients or community partners — we have provided:

• End-to-end planning and route coordination from Northern Ireland to Germany
• Dedicated vehicle allocation for safe and secure transit of equipment
• Expert driver support from our experienced team
• Clear communication with event organisers to meet strict arrival schedules

Why This Matters to HANNON Transport

While we are best known for providing temperature-controlled logistics across Ireland, the UK, and Europe, our connection to the communities we serve is just as important to us. Supporting Team NI is a way to give back and to play a part in something that inspires and unites people far beyond sport.

The values at the heart of the World Transplant Games — teamwork, resilience, and commitment — are ones we share at HANNON Transport. We are proud to help make this journey possible.

Wishing Team NI Every Success

The 25th World Transplant Games take place from 17–24 August 2025 in Dresden. As the countdown continues, we wish the entire Northern Ireland team — and all competitors — a safe journey, successful competition, and a memorable Games.

We will be following their progress closely and cheering them on every step of the way.
