We educate about persistent heartburn to raise awareness of risks & save lives.

Story

Eileen, one of our 'oldest' friends, has oesophageal cancer and she wants to raise awareness so that others in her position have a better chance of survival in the future.

The way Eileen has dealt with her diagnosis has been simply incredible and we are in awe of her attitude. Eileen has the biggest family of friends and we are honoured to be amongst them.

Why a head shave? I’ve always been quite vain about my hair so doing this  is no small consideration to me. Steve’s just going along with the flow as always and Eileen’s looking forward to being in charge of the clippers on the 5th January!
