BOUT US

Founded in 1991 by Phil Heinricy, the Tall Persons Club GB & Ireland is an independent non-profit organisation dedicated to providing information and promoting the interests of tall people.

​

If you are above average height, know someone who is, or have children who are taller than average, the Tall Persons Club aims to offer support, guidance, practical information, and a social outlet that facilitates the meeting of equally elevated souls. Joining the Tall Persons Club can help you gain confidence, and inspire you to improve matters not just for tall people, but for all people.

MEDICAL INFORMATION

A number of medical conditions are known to have additional height as one of the symptoms. The following is by no means a comprehensive list, but does cover the main syndromes.

GROWING UP TALL

Not all tall people are adults so we are keen to provide advice to tall children, teenagers and their parents. As it can be very challenging growing up taller than all your friends.

We have gathered a whole bunch of suppliers that specialise in products for tall people from clothing that is long enough on the arms to beds where your feet don't poke out the end.
