It was great to be part of this visit to the Royal London hospital. They're doing some really innovative work using digital tools to identify kidney patients much earlier so they can intervene and minimise the impact of the disease as much as possible

An exceptional speech from Charlie, which seemed to have a huge impact on Wes Streeting, who had to follow him on the rostrum. Incredibly well-crafted words, beautifully delivered; there was no doubt about the effect #kidneydisease has had on Charlie’s life

#KidneyDisease often only makes itself known once it is in it's most advanced stages. I spoke to Kidney Research UK about the kidney health checks they offer - a simple urine test can pick up early warning signs which are treatable. See their website here: kidneyresearchuk.org

There are usually no symptoms of kidney disease in the early stages. It may only be discovered if you have a blood or urine test for another reason. Find out the symptoms> worldkidneyday.co.uk/check #KidneysMatter #WorldKidneyDay
