NKF Charity Water Challenge

    Gave up on Dry January? Try Dry April instead! Help raise cash for NKF the National Kidney Federation.

    Gave up on Dry January? Try Dry April instead!

    This April, take part in our 30-day Water Challenge to support people living with kidney disease.

    All you have to do is drink water for a month - no tea, coffee, fizz or alcohol!

    The kidneys are one of the most hard-working organs in the body. Their main role is to clear out toxins from the body. Keeping well-hydrated significantly lowers the risk of developing kidney disease.

    Everyone who signs up will receive 50% off an NKF sports water bottle and the person who raises the most will receive a luxury spa day for two!

    To take part, register below, or contact us at nkf@kidney.org.uk or on 01909 544 999.
