As an academic, and as a urological surgeon, The Urology Foundation is an important charity. As a cyclist, this is a good way for me to support them!

The Urology Foundation (TUF) is a UK-based charity dedicated to improving the diagnosis, treatment, and management of urological diseases. These include conditions affecting the kidneys, bladder, prostate, and reproductive organs in both men and women.

TUF aims to promote and advance urological health by funding research and supporting education for healthcare professionals in the field. Their goal is to improve the quality of life for individuals suffering from urological diseases and ensure access to the best possible care.

TUF provides grants to fund pioneering research into urological conditions. The foundation supports innovative projects aimed at better understanding, diagnosing, and treating these diseases. A significant part of TUF’s work is focused on educating and training healthcare professionals to improve the skills of medical professionals in urology, ensuring that the latest techniques and knowledge are implemented in patient care.
