It’s not all work for us after all very successful day at the DAYLife summit a little bit of down time with pizza, wine and good company before going again tomorrow for our Midlands Kidney Network Annual Study Day @ukkidney.org @kqip.bsky.social

Well what we can we say #UKKW25 you have been amazing. I have loved that so many people from the Midlands presenting posters, abstracts, and sessions. So proud of everyone in the MKN that were able to present their unit or regional work. Looking forward to Harrogate and #UKKW26
