Hey kidney people, especially those of you with transplants or waiting for them, please take a few mins to fill out this survey. It helps us work out how the system can be improved to better support you. 👇

Around 30 out of every 100 kidney transplants are from living donors. But have you ever wondered what living kidney donation means? Find out more here: kidneycareuk.org/kidney-disease…

Did you know that people can live perfectly healthy lives with just one kidney?

Living kidney donation is when a healthy person (donor) chooses to give one of their kidneys to someone who needs it (the recipient). Find out more here: kidneycareuk.org/kidney-disease…

Whether you are hoping for a transplant, are on the waiting list or are living with a kidney transplant, we want to hear about your experiences so that we can use them to help improve the transplant system for others: surveymonkey.com/r/7KPL6DP

Thank you to James & Aasma Day for helping raise the profile of this issue & how it affects so many people with kidney disease.
