Performance and Feedback Report - Staffing posts
Over the past five years we've funded care and service improvements in over 70 hospitals providing over £10m in funding.
How to apply for financial aid
You can apply to Kidney Care UK for a grant of up to £50,000 for a patient project, piece of equipment or renal unit infrastructure. Funding is available for staff posts such as renal social workers, physiotherapists, renal counsellors and youth workers up to a maximum basic salary of £50,000 per annum. It is important to remember that the we will only consider grant applications if funds are not available from the hospital trust or other relevant authority.
Please note
We have recently reviewed our grants paperwork and processes to ensure that our charitable funds work as hard as possible and make the greatest impact on the quality of patients' lives. Therefore please ensure that you read the guidelines before applying.
