Kidney Support Network

Kidney Support Network (KSN) provides a selection of services to persons residing in Queensland who are living with kidney disease. Our mission is to raise awareness about the disease, while also supporting those already living with it.

KSN operates in Mackay, Sunshine Coast, North Brisbane, Moreton Bay and Gladstone. Services include a transport service to and from hospital for dialysing clients, hospital visitations from our support groups, equipment and generally service of care, servicing ten hospital.

The day-to-day cost of running our service is mostly funded through revenue from our 7 community op shops. We do not receive any government funding and rely heavily on donations, fundraising events for expenses and grants to purchase/ replace equipment.

KSN not only provides support to those affected by kidney disease, we also support the wider community by offering volunteering opportunities in our op shops, support groups and volunteer transport service. We are Centrelink registered and support the physically and intellectually disadvantaged by giving the opportunity to volunteer, resulting in improved mental health and social connectedness within the community.
