Story
On the 18th June, I will be walking 5K in my garden to raise money for Crohn's & Colitis UK.
In November 2017 I was diagnosed with severe Crohn's Disease. You can read about my Crohn's Disease diagnosis over on my blog - https://www.clemloves.co.uk/crohns-disease-journey-diagnosis/
Crohn’s Disease is one of the two main forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). The digestive system becomes inflamed, swollen and ulcerated. Crohn’s Disease can affect any part of the digestive system, from the mouth to the anus. Crohn’s Disease is a life-long condition, as there is currently no cure.
Crohn's & Colitis UK are an amazing charity whose website, resources, magazine and social media have helped me so much since my diagnosis. They do incredible work to help and support people living with Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.
"Let's WALK IT together; stand strong and raise vital funds to improve diagnosis and treatment , to fund research into a cure; to raise awareness and to give people hope, comfort and confidence to live freer, fuller lives." - Crohn's & Colitis UK.
