I am running the Manchester 10k again this year with my son to raise money for the charity Kidneys for Life. Any donation big or small is much appreciated.

More people than ever are battling chronic kidney disease & the numbers keep rising. While the risk increases with age, no one is immune—kidney failure can strike at any stage of life, often leading to dialysis or the need for a transplant.

The reality is heart-breaking. While treatments like dialysis and transplants offer hope, there is still no cure. This must change.

This charity raises vital funds for ground-breaking research, empower renal professionals with expert training, and provide essential support to kidney patients across the North West.
