You're kidney me aren't you?

Red Socks Run 2023

Whitty's Run for Kidney Disease

Our son/ brother James has a kidney disease that attacks his kidneys causing them to fail. He needs a kidney transplant, but unfortunately this disease will attack any new kidneys, so he will require many transplants throughout his lifetime.Β 


In the meantime he needs to have dialysis for up to 8 hours every second day to clean and filter his blood.Β 


We as a family are either each riding, walking and running 60kms over the month of October:


Dave W: Riding


Kate: Walking/ Riding


Madeline: Walking/ Riding


Dave S: Running


Will: Running


Alex: Running


Bella: Running


We thank you for your support to James and the Whitty family by contributing to kidney disease research.Β
