It’s the topic that’s too BIG to ignore. On Thursday 14 March 2024, join us in highlighting just how big an issue kidney disease is. It’s not a disease that affects only a handful of people: it’s the 10th biggest killer worldwide. Your neighbour could have it. Your parent. Your work colleague. Your child. This year, we need to you to shout it from the rooftops. We want all our followers to share the message that kidney failure is life-threatening, and that kidney transplants and dialysis aren’t cures but temporary treatments to keep loved ones with us for longer. World Kidney Day is an annual campaign to help raise awareness of kidneys and show the suffering caused when they don’t work properly. It also aims to educate people on what kidneys do and how to improve your kidney health.
