Excuse our dust! Thankyou for your patience whilst our website is being re-designed and rebuilt.

The NKF is the national Kidney Patient charity in the United Kingdom.

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.
