Ironman Mallorca 70.3 · 12 May 2018 ·

IBDSG is composed of and run by members who are affected by Inflammatory Bowel Disease, being Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis on a daily basis. We provide support through regular meetings and distribution of information. We have a long term objective of funding an IBD Specialist nurse in Guernsey.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My son, Zak, was diagnosed with Crohn's disease 10 years ago a thoroughly unpleasant, chronically painful and deliberating disease of the small intestine. It is unforgiving and doesn't care about your diet, age or how fit and healthy you are. Sufferers have to learn to live and deal with it as there is no cure. Groups like the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Support Group in Guernsey provide essential support to those afflicted with IBD locally and raise funds where further specialist care is needed.

Please support me in my challenges this year as I prepare to put myself through the wringer and hopefully raise funds for all local IBD sufferers and hopefully improve their lives.

So what am I doing? Well the list is as follows:

May - Ironman triathlon (70:3) Mallorca 

June - Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon in San Francisco 

September - 5KM swim from Guernsey to Herm

Please, please support me!! It will motivate me and make the challenge that more worthwhile. Thank you all.
