KIDNEY PATIENTS UK
Changes?
It is now a few week before the NKF 2016 Annual This year’s conference will cover topics such
Patients’ Conference in Blackpool – historically,
one of our favourite hotel destinations. This is
the one event at which 100s of patients and
their family and friends from all over the UK get
together to learn about a host of very important
issues and developments affecting our treatment move from paediatric kidney care to adult care
and care. If you have not attended before
now make this the year you make your way
to Blackpool and join us for what is always a
fascinating and informative weekend and enjoy
this opportunity to meet like-minded people
all facing a life in some way affected by kidney
failure.
Be assured the Hilton has beautiful bed and
public rooms, an outstanding buffet breakfast
in the main restaurant every morning, friendly,
helpful staff, unrivalled conference facilities and
great leisure facilities for those with energy to
spare. For those who need to dialyse over the
weekend but are not staying overnight, a room is
set aside all day Saturday for your use.
