About Kidney Care UK
 

Around 3.5 million people in the UK live with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Over 68,000 are treated for end-stage kidney failure, relying on dialysis or a transplant to keep them alive. Treatments are gruelling and relentless and impact the patients’ ability to work, maintain social interaction and live the life they choose. For over 50 years, Kidney Care UK has been at the forefront of supporting people with kidney disease. From our early days when we campaigned to introduce donor cards in the UK, we have worked hard to support and represent the interests of everyone affected by kidney disease.
Promoting better outcomes for people living with kidney disease, we actively seek applications from people who live with CKD or who have experience of the condition as a family member or healthcare professional.
