With her big smile and infectious laugh, Martha Stringer looks like any other happy-go-lucky 3 year old from Marple, near Stockport. Yet behind all of this, Martha is suffering from FSGS, one of the many diseases that affects kidney function.

Martha has less than 5 years until her kidneys fail completely and will then face the rest of her life on dialysis. Transplantation is the other reatment option but as Martha is missing an important gene, there is only a 30% chance that a transplant would be successful. Through all of this, Marthas spirit has been a true inspiration to everyone around her. The campaign has been set up to promote awareness and raise funds for Kidney Research UK to help find a cure for Martha and others like her; to give them the hope of a better future.
