What is the kidney forum?

Kidney Community is a dedicated online community space for kidney patients and carers in the UK.

The forum is a welcoming space for you to meet, share and talk with others who understand.

You’ll be able to:

  • Ask questions – big or small
  • Share your experiences and hear from others
  • Join in conversations
  • Find support and information from others
  • Discover helpful resources in one place

Who is Kidney Community for?

The forum is open to everyone at any stage of kidney disease, and those who care for someone living with it too.

Darren Daniel was part of our brilliant team of patients and carers who helped develop Kidney Community.

“When I started sharing my kidney journey online, I saw just how many people were desperate for somewhere to talk honestly about what they were going through.

Helping shape this forum felt like a natural next step – making sure it’s real, accessible and driven by the questions people actually ask, not medical jargon.”
