We raise awareness to promote living kidney donation

Story

We're cycling 500 miles from Edinburgh to Oxford during Organ Donation Week 2023, stopping off at transplant centres around the UK en route to raise awareness of living kidney donation and to show people you can lead a full and healthy life with only one kidney. There are more than 5000 people in the UK in need of a kidney and every year around 250 people die because there are not enough kidneys from deceased donors. At least four members of the team have donated a kidney to someone on the transplant waiting list.

There are almost 5,000 people waiting for a life-changing kidney transplant and yet millions of us have two healthy kidneys & need only one. We aim to raise awareness of non-directed living kidney donation to support those considering donation and to publicise why more donors are needed.
