The World Kidney Day steering committee has declared 2021 the year of “Living Well with Kidney Disease”.
The committee said that measures to prevent kidney disease were important but patients – including those who depend on dialysis and transplants – and their families should feel supported, especially during pandemics and other challenging periods.
Cllr Kieron Mallon, leader of Banbury Town Council said: “This is something that the council is pleased to support.”
