More from our What’s New page

The NKF is the national charity in the United Kingdom Run by Kidney Patients for Kidney Patients.

The Federation’s aim throughout the UK is to promote both the best renal medical practice and treatment, and the health of persons suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) or Established Renal Failure (ERF).

The NKF also supports the related needs of those relatives and friends who care for kidney patients.
