On 9th March the Institution successfully organized a Kidney Health Awareness Walk.This awareness walk serves as a demonstration of support for kidney health.
It engages the community, encourages healthy lifestyles, and spreads awareness about kidney
disease and its prevention. This event aligns perfectly with the mission of World Kidney Day to raise awareness and promote better kidney health. More than 200 participants took part in the walk while the majority were Health staff from NINDT. The walk centered around the Hospital in Maligawatta ending with a congregation at the Pradeepa hall – Maligawatta. There was a small drama presented by staff members at the gathering reflecting the importance of kidney donation.
