awareness week Walk at Elvaston · 18 May 2013

1 in 100 people have coeliac disease, yet only 36% are diagnosed. Coeliac UK empowers everyone affected, breaking down barriers, improving everyday life, offering trusted support and advancing research towards a cure. And we do it all so that one day, no one’s life will be limited by gluten.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

On Saturday 18th May, Maddy, Mia, Elise and George will walk 5km to raise awareness and money for Coeliac UK, the national charity for people with Coeliac disease.

Coeliac Disease is an autoimmune diease. Currently there is no cure or medication to treat the condition. People with Coeliac Disease have to avoid all traces of gluten to prevent malabsorption problems.

As families, we have  benefited greatly from the support of each other and from the help Coeliac UK has provided since Mia, Elise and George were all diagnosed almost 2 years ago. With no government funding, Coeliac UK relies purely on the generosity of its supporters to carry out research into the disease and raise awareness of the condition which is present in about 1 in 100 people!

Thank you for sponsoring and for supporting Coeliac UK. Your donation is greatly appreciated.
