PKD Charity is a UK-based organization dedicated to supporting individuals and their families affected by Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). As a charity we play a vital role in supporting and advocating for the 70,000 people in the UK who suffer with the incurable disease.

We do this in a number of ways:

Since 2000, when the charity was formed, we have invested thousands of pounds in to ground breaking research in to the development of new treatments to slow or prevent PKD progression, reduce pain, improve quality of life and ultimately, find a cure.

We also host support groups and events throughout the year to provide unwavering support and resources for our community. Whether they need information about managing the condition, emotional support from people who truly understand, or advocacy for research and treatments, we are here for them. These gatherings provide a vital sense of belonging and reassurance, reminding everyone that they are not alone in this journey.
