My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

We are asking you to sponsor us to do a 12k walk in aid of the Colo-rectal Foundation, undoubtedly the least glamorous charity that you will ever consider sponsoring.

Twelve months ago, I would have run 12k but these days that’s just not possible as coping with this condition and maintaining something approaching a normal existence for a young woman is quite a battle on a daily basis. Bowel disease is not a nice thing to talk about. It’s really not a nice thing to live with although that is something that I and many other sufferers simply have to accept. At the moment, for those of us who suffer from recurrent illness, the option is either a massive operation or lifelong drugs, frequent periods of illness and a significantly altered lifestyle. The Colo-rectal Foundation is a charity that funds research into new treatments for ulcerative colitis, Chron’s disease and bowel cancer and is led by my surgeon and a team of medics at St George’s hospital. I think many of you know how much of a difference my team of doctors have made to me, and I would be extremely grateful if you would consider sponsoring us to raise money to support these fantastic medics in their work.

Many thanks for your support

Charlotte
