My pal Sue and I met on the first day of Copywriting College in 1974 and we’ve been friends ever since. A few years ago she became very ill and needed a kidney transplant. So when she asked me to keep her company on a 3 day sponsored walk along the Cotswold Way I was delighted to support her. I said “Let’s make it a celebration of our 47 year old friendship and the fact that we’re both ‘still alive at 65’!” I never take my good health for granted and am humbled by the fact that so many others are not so lucky. So if I can help raise some much needed funds by doing this with her, I’ll be delighted. There are currently 850 million people worldwide living with kidney disease. With kidney disease now being the ninth top cause of death, Kidney Research UK has never been more important. Kidney disease ruins and destroys lives. Research is key to transforming kidney health and support is crucial to make this happen. Please donate whatever you can, every donation will help to keep research going. Thanks so much xxx
