Story
After 2 years of suffering with chronic kidney disease, my sister in law came forward as a match for a live donor. Her selfless act has given me another opportunity to live my life again.
I am looking to host a 'Gift of Life" charity event to help raise awareness of live donor and raise funds towards the Kidney Foundation to help research in finding a cure for kidney diseases.
Of the almost 7,000* patients currently on the UK’s transplant waiting list, 30% have been waiting more than two years. More than 500 of them have been waiting longer than five years – that’s over 1,800 days each.
In the last 10 years and over 6,000, including 270 children, have died before receiving the transplant they desperately needed.
