It provides funding for items that help improve the wellbeing of patients that they would not otherwise have obtained and by giving assistance where needed.
Membership is free and is open to all kidney patients and their close relatives and friends.
Committee members are all volunteers who are either patients, carers or have an interest in supporting renal patients.
