  1. After carrying out WKD awareness campaign on 17/3/24, we went back to the church on 23/3/24 and gave extensive kidney health talk by adult and paediatric nephrologists. Afterwards, we carried out screening of over 1000 adolescents and adults for risk factors for kidney disease including blood pressure, serum creatinine, urinalysis, blood glucose levels, weight and height for BMI calculation. The priest happened to be a kidney transplant and he championed advocacy in the church.
