Story
Thank you so much for visiting our justgiving page. We are running our first ever marathon for Crohns and Colitis UK and our aim is to raise £5,000 for this wonderful charity. Crohns and Colitis UK want to improve the lives of people with Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, and other kinds of Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
In 2008, Philippa was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. The disease has directly impacted on her life causing chronic abdominal pain, hospital admissions and a range of medication to control the symptoms of a flare. Currently in remission, we believe that the work from Crohns and Colitis UK has directly helped her to receive the right medical treatment and ongoing support. We are passionate to raise money to fund further research, improve lives and help to lead the fight against Crohns and Colitis.
