About Us
Our mission is to provide quality support services.
The Kidney Support Network is a charitable community organisation founded in
1981. The Association is managed by a voluntary Board of Management and is based
in Brisbane with branches throughout the state. Our services include advocacy,
information and referral, patient and family support, accommodation service,
equipment service, education grants, emergency assistance, and social and
holiday programs.
We work closely with hospital staff to ensure patient comfort and liaise with
organisations with similar objectives. The Queensland Renal Association
Incorporated receives a small grant from Queensland Health to cover
administration only.
All of our services are funded by the fundraising efforts of our voluntary
membership, donations, bequests and corporate sponsorship. Special projects are
from time-to-time fun.
