As many of you will be aware, Jonathan (Dad) received care at Manchester Royal Infirmary (MRI) for over twenty five years including, but not limited to, his kidney and pancreas transplants.

Kidneys for Life is a charity very close to the hearts of both Dad and one very special consultant at MRI who has been fundamental to Dad's care over these years. 

Although taken way too soon, Dad wouldn't have been able to live such a fulfilling and bright life, without charities such as Kidneys for Life.

When Mum and Dad first met, Dad’s dream was to one day have a pancreas transplant, and due to incredible research this was made possible for him in 2005. 

We as a family feel there's not a more fitting charity to support and we would be forever grateful if you could donate in Dad's loving memory - no matter how big or small. 

For almost 50 years, Kidneys for Life has worked with patients, families and staff across the North West of England to provide vital funding for research into all elements of kidney disease.

Donations are used to:

- Provide funding for research into kidney disease, transplantation, dialysis and related diseases affecting the kidney

- Support the education and training of kidney related teams and patients

- Provide patient amenities for kidney and transplant patients

- Purchase medical equipment 

Kidneys for Life work hard to ensure that they make the best use of the funds they receive and continue to carry out award winning research so that they can make a kidney for life, a reality.
