Let's go potty Will you show your support and help out by placing a collection pot in your local pub, shop, bakery, or chippy?* How do I get involved? It's simple. If you’re interested in helping us, we will send you a collection pot and a letter of authorisation to show the shop owner that you are supporting the National Kidney Federation. We’ll also include a poster to display alongside the collection pot. When the pot is nearly full, we ask that you empty it and transfer the money to our bank via bank transfer. We will keep a record of the money raised and provide a certificate of appreciation for you to give to the shop owner. You could make a significant difference. Please email [email protected] if you would like to get involved. Why should I get involved? There are currently 3.5 million people in the UK that have chronic kidney disease (stages 3 to 5), the NKF is a lifeline of support for both patients and their families.
