Mark is going to be part of Team Sheffield for the British Transplant Games in August 2026. Mark will take part in the ten pin bowling and 5km walk as a competitor and then on the Sunday Jayne & Diane will join him for the 2.5km Donor Run/Walk to round of his event together.

SAKA is the local charity that supports both patients with kidney disease and also funds the kit and everything else needed for the team to attend the games.

Your support on Mark’s training journey will help to spur him on during his training with his PT Tom Broad. Stay tuned for more details!

SAKA exists to help and support all kidney patients in the Sheffield and surrounding area. CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) affects many people, particularly as they get older. Less than 1 in 10 of people with CKD will require dialysis or transplant during their lives.

Whatever stage patients are at, SAKA is there to help them, their families, friends and carers.
