What We Do
​
Bringing a little brightness to the lives of people recently diagnosed with kidney cancer
Flutter provides care packs called Butterfly Bags and Comfort Cushions to patients who have been diagnosed with kidney cancer.
Flutter aims to bring a little brightness at a time when needed, and to reduce isolation and anxiety, whilst raising awareness of this type of cancer.
Flutter also provides Comfort Cushions to kidney cancer patients. These are helpful following a nephrectomy, or during a course of treatment. Our Butterfly Bags and Comfort Cushions are available directly to kidney cancer patients at hospitals and clinics. Butterfly Bags contain items to support any hospital admission.
If you are a health professional and would like Flutter to benefit your kidney cancer patients, please get in touch.

Raising Awareness of Kidney Cancer
As a relatively rare cancer, the level of support and awareness for kidney cancer is often limited, and can lead to additional anxiety for patients.
​
Both charities Kidney Cancer UK and Action Kidney Cancer endorse Flutter.
Information leaflets from both charities are contained within the Butterfly Bags, with details of the support that they can provide to patients and families.
