The Complete Guide to the 18th UK Annual Dialysis Conference

The 18th UK Annual Dialysis Conference runs from 16 to 18 September 2026 at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester. The official UK Kidney Association listing describes the 2026 theme as "Putting Life First: Advancing Dialysis for Every Patient" and says the meeting brings together multiprofessional UK and international experts and distinguished speakers. The programme format is described as state-of-the-art lectures, panel discussions, case studies and workshops, with opportunities to network with multidisciplinary dialysis teams, industry partners, stakeholder organisations and charities. The page states that the meeting attracts CME points and is endorsed by UK and European nephrology organisations, but it does not give a points total. Registration fees are described as unchanged from the previous three years, but the visible listing does not state exact fee values, trainee pricing, student pricing or a registration deadline. No abstract deadline, abstract categories, formal submission route or publication outcome were visible on the official page.
