Baking the world a better place · 3 December 2017

We are the largest charity dedicated to kidney research in the UK. Kidney disease ruins and destroys lives. Treatments are gruelling, relentless. There is no cure. We say this isn't good enough. We will transform kidney health. Kidney disease ends here.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm a junior doctor based in London, who loves baking and strives to bake the world a better place.

Why fundraise for KRUK?

3 million people suffer from kidney disease in the UK, 1/3 people suffer from chronic kidney disease; yet there is no cure, and there are very limited ways in which we can curb progression. I know a few friends now who have suffered this fate of end stage renal disease, and the prognosis is poor. 5 people a week also die waiting for transplants. So do support me in my motion to raise funds for Kidney Research UK - we desperately need good research and breakthroughs in kidney disease, which will save many lives.

In the next four months, I will be working in the laboratory setting, with the aim of exploring the role of macrophages in diabetic nephropathy as well as IgG4-related kidney disease. This will take place at Imperial College Healthcare, Hammersmith campus.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
