Baby Mila's Kidney Impact Fund

Parent-led advocacy focused on the accelerating levers that could unlock improved outcomes for the rarest, youngest patients — including babies on whole-life kidney journeys like our Mila.

Our focus

Force multipliers, kept connected

As parent-patient advocates, Chloe and I are ruthlessly focused on platform changes that will include Mila's future — and the futures of every child like her.

We've collected four threads from our own experience and from the wisdom of the Kidney Dinner community. Each one matters. Together — kept connected — they multiply.

The threads

Four accelerating forces

Interdisciplinary work aimed at getting the best knowledge to the rarest, youngest affected.

Kidney Gold Card

Behaviour change — Donate a Kidney

An incentive system to gift a kidney now and benefit later — rebalancing how society values living donation.

Paediatric TREG Clinical Trial

Clinical trial — Collaboration with KRUK

Following the TWO study, a paediatric TREG trial designed to bring cell-based tolerance into children's kidney care.

MHRA Rapid & Rare — Kidney Response

Governance — Led by Moin

A regulatory pathway tuned for the rarest paediatric cases, so the youngest patients aren't last in line.

Cell Therapy Suites at NHSBT

Funding tech transfer — Led by Fadi

Funding cell therapy suites embedded in NHSBT nationally — the infrastructure that makes everything else scale.

The Fifth Force

Open call — Your idea

We're inviting suggestions for a fifth force multiplier. What are we missing? Tell us — and help shape the platform.

A fiscal home
