📣 Today, we released our new report on transplant care in the UK kidneycareuk.org/about-us/po…
🚨 The fact that 6,250 people are waiting for a #KidneyTransplant is shocking. It's the highest the list has been in a decade, & a 10% rise over the last year. We need action to change this

40 years ago, Kathleen donated one of her kidney to her daughter Cheryl, who was just five years old at the time.
“Our bond is incredible. She’ll always be my wee girl, even though she is now in her 40s.”

When receiving a new kidney, one concern is that the body could reject the organ. Ensuring that there is great compatibility between the organ & the patient before the procedure is fundamental to lower the possibility of encountering rejection #take2 #PoweredByESOT @ChiesiGroup

Can I just urge you to share this video with
- ANYONE who's household gets child benefit
- ANYONE who's got kids but doesn't claim child benefit because they earn above the threshold
They need to ensure you're not missing out on £1,000s or £10,000s to their state pension
_-------------
Do you claim child benefit? Or not claim as you’re over the threshold? Either way an admin tweak could add £1,000s to your state pension entitlement later
