Historia

The South West Thames Kidney Fund supports research into kidney disease and diabetes at the South West Thames Institute for Renal Research in Carshalton, London. The lives of many people, and those close to them, are seriously affected by kidney disease. Kidney failure is an extremely debilitating illness. Cases of kidney disease are rising rapidly each year. Kidney disease can be inherited and passed down through the generations. Some patients end up needing regular dialysis and some have successful transplants. Sadly, many others have died. Kidney research is the only answer to find a prevention or a cure.
