Kidney Cancer UK is the UK’s leading kidney cancer charity. We seek to reduce the harm caused by kidney cancer by increasing knowledge and awareness, providing patient information and by supporting research into the causes, prevention and treatment of the disease. We receive no government support, as such we depend primarily on voluntary donations. We have published a series of three acclaimed ‘Understanding Kidney Cancer’ booklets, set up an online patient support network, provide a free patient Careline and Counselling service, a respected and established online renal nurse training and research programmes and campaign for access to life extending drugs for NHS kidney cancer patients
