We know that poor mental health impacts mental wellbeing, medication adherence and employment. Our findings highlight the need for mental health screening, prevention and support for young adults with kidney failure as they get older.
We hope to be able to share more findings from SPEAK-2 soon! @_ajhamilton

Kidney disease is hard for mental health as well as physical health. Following the 2022 launch of our psychosocial manifesto, catch up with what we've been doing this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek & what we're asking for kidneycareuk.org/manifesto
Super excited to present some initial findings of the #speak2 study at @UKKWVirtual on 7th October in the 'Paediatrics, transitional and young adult care' session!
550 postal invitations to the #SPEAK2 study ready for everyone who missed the email! Now just need to stick on all the stamps...!

Replying to @YAKidneyGroup
The #YAKGVirtual schedule looks great, especially looking forward to sharing some @SPEAKstudy data on diversity in CKD among young adults on Sunday.
The responses for SPEAK-2 are coming in thick and fast! In the mean time, here's a reminder of the findings of the original SPEAK study nitter.gq/i/events/1098861153646…
Delighted to have just clicked send for the email invitations to #youngadults to participate in the #SPEAK2 study. Postal invitations will also be sent out but please spread the word! Would be amazing to get as many responses as possible.
We are deeply saddened to announce the death of our founder, Mrs Elizabeth Ward OBE, who died at the age of 93 on Monday 20 July. She dedicated her life to improving the quality of life for kidney patients: kidneycareuk.org/news-and-ca…
