With 1 in 3 Australians adults at risk of kidney disease, we are calling out to all Australians, to understand their risk.
Take the Kidney Risk TestOur Awareness Campaign, titled #nofilter, shows the reality of life on dialysis and urges people to understand the risk factors for kidney disease so they can take steps to manage their kidney health, and prevent life with no filter.
Your kidneys play a vital role in your body. They work hard to clean your blood and create urine for you 24 hours a day. Without kidney function, you would struggle to process toxins and eliminate waste, and this would have a devastating impact on your health.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes and cardiovascular disease are each independently serious diseases, affecting millions of Australians. Our evidence report, Make the Link: Diabetes, Kidneys and Heart, demonstrates the importance of these links.
We are the peak body for kidney disease in Australia. We have been providing trustworthy resources, support services and research funding to the Australian community for over 50 years, to tackle kidney disease and work towards a future where every Australian can enjoy good health. Find out more
