Trek to Machu Picchu · 3 May 2019

Guts UK is the charity for the digestive system. Our guts have been underfunded, understaffed & undervalued for decades. Guts UK’s work leads to earlier diagnoses, kinder treatments & ultimately, a cure, through funding research, raising awareness, and providing information.

Story

I have self funded this trip therefore all donations will go straight to Guts UK!!!

Background

I worked in the NHS for 8 years as a dietitian specialising in supporting those with chronic gut disorders. During that time I saw the impact such disorders could have on a persons quality of life. I no longer work in the NHS, and work in policy for professional practice with The British Dietetic Assicistion. Here I will look forward to influencing dietetic practice to ensure good quality care is provided by dietitians to those who access dietetic services for gut disorders in the UK. I wanted to dedicate this challenge to all clients I supported during my time in the NHS. 

My plea

Gut disorders can be debilitating and can take away a persons dignity. It was an honour and a pleasure for me to be able to give someone’s dignity back, and hear how I had changed a persons life. Your donation would support Guts UK fund research to improve treatment and the search for cure of gut disorders. 

No donation to small...

I appreciate you get lots of people requesting sponsorship and donation, so no matter how tiny your donation it will be greatly appreciated. Pennies make pounds :-)
