Kidney Buddies
The Kidney Buddy Program (Kidney Buddies) is a peer support program which aims to connect individuals living with kidney disease, donors and recipients, their carers, parents and family members with a hand-picked Kidney Buddy who has lived experience and can provide social and emotional support through unfamiliar situations as well as share information, learning and practical experiences.
The Buddy relationship can be a great way to connect socially to other members of the community. This relationship may be facilitated through phone, online and face-to-face meetings as agreed by each party.
