MAY I express my sincere thanks and gratitude to all those in the Preston area who contributed to a recent house-to-house collection between September 22 and October 7 for The National Kidney Research Fund.
The total sum raised was £1,721.16 and will be used for research in to renal equipment, kidney patient care and welfare.
This includes the provision of renal equipment, promotion of the organ donor card and raising the public's awareness of the extent of kidney related disease.
You will be interested to learn that one in five people are affected by kidney problems and 22 children each day are born with kidney-related ailments.
Maureen Harbour, Promoter, The National Kidney Research Fund
