Kidney Care UK - 2018 Impact Report
As the UK’s leading kidney patient support charity, we are here to help and provide a much needed safety net for kidney patients and their families. Whilst we can’t cover all the work accomplished in 2018 in one publication, it is incredibly heartwarming to hear directly from those who have benefitted from our emotional, financial and practical support services or who are supporting the charity through fundraising efforts.

“You donated the money to enable me to buy a laptop, a piece of equipment that was much more than just a means of research. It allowed me to prove to myself and everyone else that having a serious health condition, and even being on dialysis, need not be an obstacle. With the right combination of ambition and support you can still achieve anything you set out to do. Once again, I cannot thank you all enough - your donations really do make a huge difference to people’s lives.” Miles, graduated from Lancaster University with a First Class Master’s Degree in December 2018 www.kidneycareuk.org | info@kidneycareuk.org 01420 541424 | Lines open 9am - 5pm, Mon–Fri Facebook: kidneycareuk.org | Twitter: @kidneycareuk | Instagram: @kidneycareuk Kidney Care UK, 3 The Windmills, St Mary’s Close, Turk Street, Alton GU34 1EF ©Kidney Care UK.
