**update!** I am cycling a marathon on sept 8th! There will be an event held at Penzance leisure centre that day whilst I slog it out in the gym on the bike! The leisure centre have kindly donated me a free membership so I can train and clock up some miles towards my 1000km target! Please please support me where u can! I had surgery 2years ago for an ileostomy, last year I had surgery to remove my entire colon! The last few years have been quite a struggle with numerous surgeries and complications! This year I face yet more surgery! Completing 1000km before October will be a massive challenge for me! Please help support my cause! Here is abit about the actual charity itself.....Colostomy UK is a national charity that offers support and advice to people with stomas and to their families, carers and friends. Colostomy UK also campaigns and acts as advocates for ostomates on the many issues they face going about their daily lives. We want hidden conditions to be understood and accepted by all. Our vision is of communities in which everyone is empowered to reach their potential.
