World Kidney Day
We are celebrating World Kidney Day early this year on WEDNESDAY 3RD MARCH!
The Centre for Kidney Research (CKR) will be holding a BBQ lunch between 11am and 2pm in the grounds of The Children's Hospital at Westmead near the children's playground!
We will have free blood pressure checks, lots of information available about kidney health and a representative from Kidney Health Australia will be coming along!! Feel free to come along for lunch and meet some of the staff of the Centre for Kidney Research and some of the renal staff from The Children's Hospital at Westmead.
There will also be a cupcake stall from 9.30am and a raffle, so if you would like to sell or buy some tickets, we have some great prizes. If you would like more information about the event or about helping on the day, please contact Narelle Williams at CKR on 9845 1473 or by email narellew4@chw.edu.au
See you there!
