12 March is World Kidney Day. The Theme for 2015 is "Kidney Health For All". Between 8-10% of the global adult population have some form of kidney damage, and every year millions die prematurely of complications related to Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD).

Factors which can lead to an increased risk of CKD include diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, smoking and obesity.
