Kidney Fund trip planned

The Punchestown Kidney Research Fund is to organise a trip for its supporters and friends to see at first hand the kind of benefits it provides.

The fund is strongly supported by Phena Bermingham and many of her friends, and the proceeds from their recent Mini Marathon participation have been used to provide art classes for kidney patients on dialysis.

The Fund has also bought a house in Kerry to provide holiday accommodation suitable for kidney patients.

The trip is being planned for some time in October.
