It's the topic that's too BIG to ignore. On Thursday 10 March 2022, join us in highlighting just how big an issue kidney disease is. It's not a disease that affects only a handful of people; one in ten worldwide have it. Your neighbour could have it. Your parent. Your work colleague. Your child. Help us shout it from the rooftops.

As we emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic, kidney patients and their loved ones still live with fears for the future. For people like Duncan and Sanjay, this doesn't just include worries for their physical health, but the lasting financial and emotional impacts of the pandemic, including job loss and increased loneliness. Families like Lindsey's also feel these pressures as their loved one begins dialysis or waits for a kidney transplant - currently the only main treatment options available for patients like Simon.

So, this World Kidney Day 2022, we'd love you to get involved and help us get kidneys on everyone's radar. There are lots of ways to show your support - read and share the stories above, run an event at work or home, download and use our resources and share the online tool above on social media. Plus, don't forget to follow us on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to hear the latest.

World Kidney Day is an annual campaign to help raise awareness of kidneys and show the suffering caused when they don't work properly. It also aims to educate people on what kidneys do and how to improve your kidney health.

The Kidney Charities Together Group coordinates the World Kidney Day activity in the UK. The Group consists of the Kidney Care UK, Kidney Research UK, the National Kidney Federation, the Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Charity, the UK Kidney Association and Kidney Wales.

Latest news

We need your support

You may be aware that many IBD nurses have been drafted to the frontline of critical care, so more and more people are depending on us for advice on managing their conditions.

Calls to our helpline have risen by 400% and visits to our website have increased by 600%.

As the nurses perform a vital role on the frontline, we are here to offer additional help to those who need it. More funds are needed for us to do this role as effectively as we can.

Just £25 could help pay for vital daily updates to our website. This means we can step up our provision of key information for people with Crohn’s and Colitis around the country.

A larger donation of £35 could help pay for calls to our Helpline. During the calls, our Helpline Advisers can guide people through the maze of official advice in a way that makes sense.

You may already have donated a gift during the crisis and if this is the case, we can’t thank you enough for your kindness and generosity.

You have been a fantastic resource during this outbreak. Will absolutely donate and hope others do the same. Thanks for your support.

One of the many messages of support left on our social channels since the pandemic began.

Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease - GOLD

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Today, on World Lung Day (WLD), GOLD is united with members of the Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS) and WLD partner organizations to advocate for respiratory health globally and call on policymakers to ensure that everyone has access to the services they need to improve their lung health.

Respiratory diseases impose an immense worldwide health burden. The facts are shocking:

384 million people suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and 3 million die from it each year, making it the third leading cause of death worldwide.

10 million people develop tuberculosis and 1.6 million die from it each year, making it the most common lethal infectious disease.

76 million people die from lung cancer each year, making it the deadliest cancer.

334 million people suffer from asthma, making it the most common chronic disease of childhood. It affects 14 percent of children globally − and is rising.

Pneumonia kills millions of people each year making it a leading cause of death in the very young and very old.

91 percent of the world's population live in places where poor air quality exceeds WHO guidelines.

WLD, on 25 th September, comes two days after the UN High-Level Meeting on Universal Health Coverage (UHC). UHC calls for all people to receive the health services they need, when they need it, without suffering financial hardship. At least half of the world's population still do not have full coverage of essential health services.

The global spotlight on UHC represents an opportunity for substantial progress in the fight against lung disease around the world. On WLD this year we are united in our message: 'Leave no one behind. On World Lung Day, we call for healthy lungs for all.'

"UHC is particularly important to persons with respiratory disease. For example, a break in the supply of medicine for patients with tuberculosis could cause the development of drug resistance, which carries serious consequences. The abrupt unavailability of asthma medicine could cause severe suffering and even death. Lack of health care provider availability usually means delay in diagnosis, which could be fatal for lung cancer patients," said Dean Schraufnagel, MD, Executive Director of FIRS.

FIRS call for UHC action through:

1. Strengthening health care workers.

2. Prioritising prevention, namely tobacco, as well as air pollution, and vaccinations.

3. Maintaining a continuous supply of essential medicines.

4. Stemming antibiotic resistance

In addition, FIRS call for these essential actions to reduce the burden of respiratory disease and improve global health:

1. Increase awareness among the public and policy makers that respiratory health is a major component of global health.

2. Reduce the use of all tobacco products through universal enforcement of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

3. Adopt and require World Health Organization air quality standards to reduce ambient, indoor, and occupational air pollution for all countries.

4. Promote universal access to quality health care, essential medicines, and immunisations.

5. Improve early diagnosis of respiratory diseases through increasing public awareness of lung health and disease.

6. Increase training of health professionals worldwide in respiratory disease.

7. Standardise the monitoring and management of respiratory diseases with evidence-based national and international strategies.

8. Increase research to prevent and treat respiratory diseases.

"We hope World Lung Day will provide an opportunity for action, conversation, and awareness. A unified voice of all dedicated to respiratory health will be a powerful force," concludes Dr. Schraufnagel.

To learn more about World Lung Day go to our World Lung Day Toolkit.
About the Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS)
The Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS) is an organi sation comprised of the world's leading international respiratory societies working together to improve lung health globally: American College of Chest Physicians (CHEST), American Thoracic Society (ATS), Asian Pacific Society of Respirology (APSR), Asociación Latino Americana De Tórax (ALAT), European Respiratory Society (ERS), International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Diseases (The Union), Pan African Thoracic Society (PATS), Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), and the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD).

The goal of FIRS is to unify and enhance efforts to improve lung health through the combined work of its more than 70,000 members globally.

THE WORLD’S, AND THE WORLD HEART FEDERATION’S, BIGGEST AWARENESS-RAISING PLATFORM FOR CVD
World Heart Day is celebrated every year on 29 September.

In May 2012, world leaders committed to reducing global mortality from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) by 25% by 2025. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is accountable for nearly half of all NCD deaths making it the world’s number one killer. World Heart Day is, therefore, the perfect platform for the CVD community to unite in the fight against CVD and reduce the global disease burden.

Heart disease and stroke, is the world’s leading cause of death claiming 18.6 million lives each year

Created by the World Heart Federation, World Heart Day informs people around the globe that CVD, including heart disease and stroke, is the world’s leading cause of death claiming 18.6 million lives each year, and highlights the actions that individuals can take to prevent and control CVD. It aims to drive action to educate people that by controlling risk factors such as tobacco use, unhealthy diet and physical inactivity, at least 80% of premature deaths from heart disease and stroke could be avoided.

World Heart Day is a global campaign during which individuals, families, communities, and governments around the world participate in activities to take charge of their heart health and that of others. Through this campaign, the World Heart Federation unites people from all countries and backgrounds in the fight against the CVD burden and inspires and drives international action to encourage heart-healthy living across the world. We and our members believe in a world where heart health for everyone is a fundamental human right and a crucial element of global health justice.

Our Global Partners

World Heart Day is proud to partner with AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim and Lilly alliance, and Pfizer
