Story

Each year, over 42,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with bowel cancer. That's why I'm supporting Bowel Research UK in January by taking on Challenge 42. Bowel Research UK are the UK’s leading specialist bowel cancer and bowel disease research charity and our research is saving and improving lives. I'll be covering 42 miles by 31st January to raise money for vital life-changing research into bowel cancer and bowel disease. Please sponsor me as I take on this challenge and start 2024 with a bang.

I was hospitalised in May 2023 which resulted in an emergency sub total colectomy with an ileostomy which I have named Anastasia and now wear a stoma bag for life . I was In hospital for nearly 4 months as I had been so poorly and lost over 5 1/2 stone in weight. 

Please donate as this charity has kept me sane even on the down days I experience. X
