This section contains links to sources of information that may be of interest to kidney patients and their families/carers. The list is by no means complete so please re-visit as we continue to expand it.

Please note that the Renal Standards National Service Framework documents contain in-depth technical details but will be useful for those people wishing to learn more about the work being carried out nationwide to improve renal services throughout the UK.

PUBLICATIONS
There are quite a few books for patients on chronic renal failure but none can beat those written by Andy Stein and Janet Wild! They are extremely easy to understand and are an invaluable source of information - not only for kidney patients - but for their friends and families too.
AMAZON sell their books at very low prices - for example, WHSMITH are currently selling 'Kidney Failure Explained - 3rd Edition' for £17.99!!
