The charity supports the only haemodialysis centre in the Gambia with dialysis and medical equipment and consumables desperately needed in order to provide free lifesaving dialysis treatment to the increasing number of patients. We also provide staff training and raise awareness about kidney disease

Story

Thanks for visiting our British 10K London Run page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online - it's quick, easy and totally secure.

This charity was setup by Hans and his wife Sailey just after Sailey's mother, Ida Bass was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in the Gambia.

We are raising funds to support the haemodialysis centre in the Gambia where Sailey's mother was receiving dialysis treatment until she passed away in September 2013. This dialysis centre is the only one in the whole of the Gambia and it is severely under equipped with a very high patient mortality rate. Currently the longest surviving patient on dialysis is 11 months, whereby in the UK, patients can survive on dialysis for more than 25 years.

Sailey's mother only survived on dialysis for 4 months, which is normal at present. But we hope with your donation we can help change this and see patients surviving for more than 11 months.   Thank you.
