About UKSpR

What we do

We support nephrology trainees by:

  • Representing trainee views within the UK Kidney Association and contributing to national Committees, Special Interest Groups and working groups
  • Organising the annual Specialty Renal Trainees Meeting and supporting trainee-led sessions at UK Kidney Week
  • Connecting trainees across the UK through a national network of executive committee members and regional representatives
  • Promoting opportunities to participate in research, audit, quality improvement and collaborative projects, including initiatives such as NEPHwork
  • Sharing educational opportunities, funding, fellowships and other resources relevant to higher specialty training
  • Supporting the development of future nephrology consultants through leadership, collaboration and national engagement

Our aim is to build a connected, engaged and supported community of renal trainees, while helping shape the future of nephrology training in the UK.
