Dublin Marathon 2011 · 31 October 2011 ·

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

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>So as many of you will agree I have finally lost the running plot and decided to attempt the Dublin Marathon in October!!!</p> <p>I am running this to raise money for the Coeliac UK. Coeliac disease is an auto- immune disease. Gluten, which is found in wheat, barley and rye triggers an immune reaction in people with coeliac disease. This means that eating gluten damages the lining of the small intestine. This can cause a failure to grow at normal levels, malnutition, bloating and abdominal pain!</p> <p>Coeliac disease has an effect on everyday living, including shoping in the supermarket, eating out, parties and now affects one in a 100 people in the UK.</p> <p>The Coeliac&nbsp;UK is a charitable organisation that recieves no Government funding, its aim is to the improve the lives of people with coeliac disease through support,&nbsp;campaigning&nbsp;and&nbsp;research.</p> <p>So please sponsor me for attempting a marathon and support Coeliac UK.</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Dani xx</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
