United Norwich Kidney Patients Association - UNKPA The charity run by patients for all kidney patients and their families in Norfolk, for support and guidance.
Welcome to our new twitter account dedicated to all kidney patients and their carers and families in Norfolk. This page will allow us to keep you informed about our work as a Charity, and to share any relevant information to kidney patients.
Words from #Transplant Surgeon Jeremy Crane that we've shared previously. "We don’t perform this ritual but the sentiment is the same. Transplant surgeons are profoundly respectful of donors and their families. Transplantation is often the only ray of hope springing from tragedy"
Without organ donation, there is no story, no hope, no transplant. However, when there is an organ donor, life springs from death, sorrow turns to hope and a terrible loss becomes an amazing gift. Sign up to become an organ donor and save up to 9 lives! 🌍✨💗#EndTheWaitingList
We recently updated our home haemodialysis leaflet. You can find it available for digital download and to order here on our website: https://t.co/aFXHTHKEF6
It's #TransplantNursesDay, a day to raise awareness of the unique contributions #transplant nurses make in the lives of people, especially their patients. We'd like to express our gratitude to all the nurses that work in the transplant sector ❤

If you're aged 18-30 and in the UK, you can register for a free Covid-19 vaccine webinar on Friday 26th March, 6pm-7pm. It's an opportunity to ask questions, share experiences and share anxieties about the vaccine.
Register your place here: https://t.co/JSUepuUnBi.
It’s really important that everyone takes up their offer of a vaccine when they are invited to. Thousands of people with kidney disease have had their vaccination already and thousands more are being called in the weeks and months ahead https://t.co/eObjiWfQpW

If you are looking to celebrate the New Year (and say good riddance to 2020), please do so within your own household. Coronavirus loves a get-together so please do not take the risk by mixing with other households.
