Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you will know, I've struggled with having Crohn's Disease for a long time (10 years). It's profoundly affected my life and I'm a relatively mild case so I can't imagine how other people with this disease cope, and I have so much respect for them. Crohn's and Colitis UK is a charity very close to my heart; not only do they provide support and information but they fund much needed research too (the cause of crohn's is still largely a mystery)! 

Therefore, I have set myself a very big challenge! Anyone who knows me knows I am constantly on Facebook, texting or watching tv. I am a complete technology addict! I have vowed to give up all these types of technology for a whole month (May 18th - June 17th inclusive). That means no laptop/internet/facebook, no texting, no tv, no dvds and no mp3 player! (The only concession I will allow myself is to have my old mobile just so I can be contacted in emergencies, but I'm not able to make outgoing calls or text on it 'cos my contract's ended. Similarly, if I urgently need to get in touch with someone I will have to ring them on a landline, but I'm completely banned from using my snazzy mobile phone). So many people have said that I'm mad or that they don't believe I can do it. Of course it will be difficult, but it will be worth it if it gets lots of people to sponsor me. :)

Thank you in advance :)
