About their organisation:
Our client is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Their vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, they fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making their work more essential than ever.
They work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. They collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.
Over the last ten years they have invested more than £65 million into research. They lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.
Most importantly, they also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything they do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan their priorities and their work across the charity.
Those patient contributions are vital, always helping them and their partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring they see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding them that behind every statistic and every number is a person the patients and the carers who inspire their mission and push them forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.
You may have experience in the following: Public Relations Officer, Communications Officer, Media Relations Manager, Press Officer, PR Coordinator, External Communications Specialist, PR and Media Manager, Communications and Engagement Officer, PR Consultant, Charity Communications Executive, Charity, Charities, Third Sector, Not for Profit, NFP, etc.
