In July, along with Bristol Water and Kidney Care UK, we had the pleasure of being invited to visit the Renal Dialysis Unit at Southmead Hospital in Bristol.
It was very humbling and eye-opening to see the fantastic work that our wonderful NHS does supporting dialysis patients and chatting with some of those having treatment.
Understanding the challenges and struggles that people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have to deal with first hand really highlights the importance of our partnership and how we need to support our customers living with CKD.
