Our Special Drought Breaking Friends

Kidney Health Australia (KHA) are the lead organisation promoting kidney and urinary tract health through research, consumer They  achieve this by implementing awareness and education programs in conjunction with renal specialists, health professionals and educators to reduce the incidence of kidney disease in the community, funding cutting edge medical research into cures for kidney and urinary tract disease and providing a network of education, care and support for patients, their families and carers, promoting organ donation.

One of KHA’s main messages is promoting drinking water rather than other beverages. Water hydrates your body, is calorie free and is readily available. If you do not have enough fluids to keep your body hydrated, eventually urination stops and your kidneys will fail.  The body can’t remove toxic waste products and in extreme cases, this may result in death.

So listen to your thirst and drink water instead!

WaterAid is an international charity whose mission is to overcome poverty by enabling the world’s poorest people to gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education.

Clean water is essential for life, but one in eight of the world's population does not have access to it. This, and lack of safe sanitation, result in over two million people dying from water-related diseases every year.

Very Unique Existence

Very Unique Existence are on the rise globally and create, awesome, unique, eclectic rock music.

The foundational concept of this band and their self titled Genre is called "Positive Consciousness Rock". It's their thing, and by definition it is: The design, development and delivery of music, lyrics, songs that have an intentional positive impact on the listener.

At a practical level this "Positive Consciousness Rock" is defined by the fact that the band donates 10% to 20% of every door show they do to a local active charity in the town they are playing, along with supporting aid abroad.

The band headlined Brisbane’s Greenfest, for which their track ‘Looking Down’ was chosen as the theme song. Very Unique Existence is giving away free merchandise for people who register on http://www.thevue.com.au
