People with kidney disease have told us that the lack of awareness of kidney disease, kidney failure and their treatments leaves them feeling isolated and ignored.
This is why we launched our #BloodyAmazingKidneys awareness campaign – to help celebrate the amazing job our kidneys do to filter our blood, and to help raise awareness of the impact that kidney disease has on the lives of millions of people across the UK.
But we can’t do this alone, we need your help.
Could you be at risk of kidney disease?
Join 350,000+ people who have already checked their kidney health and answer a few simple questions to understand more about keeping your kidneys healthy. Knowing your risk can help your doctor diagnose you in the early stages if you do have chronic kidney disease (CKD).

How you can support the #BloodyAmazingKidneys campaign
Until they are diagnosed, many kidney patients don't know anything about their kidneys. Our Bloody Amazing Kidneys campaign aims to help identify those most at risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD).

CKD awarenessAt Kidney Care UK, we want to start a national conversation about the importance of kidney health
We want more people to be diagnosed earlier, giving them more time to be able to slow the progression of their kidney disease. We believe everyone who has CKD must be aware of their diagnosis and empowered to manage their own kidney health.Sign up to get information about the #BloodyAmazingKidneys campaign by email
