Story

🌟 We Are Team Colostomy UK – Stepping Up for Stomas! 🌟

At Colostomy UK, we’re more than just a team—we’re a family of dedicated individuals, united by a shared passion for making a difference. This April, we’re taking on an incredible challenge: walking 2,000,000 steps to raise vital funds for those living with a stoma. Every step we take is for the thousands of people who face life-changing stoma surgery and need our support.

💜 Why does this matter?

Right now, over 200,000 people in the UK are living with a stoma. Many of them feel lost, overwhelmed, or alone. But they don’t have to be—we are here for them. Whether it’s through our 24-hour stoma helpline, our extensive range of support literature, or our private Facebook group, we’re providing life-changing emotional and practical support—completely free of charge.

🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️ How can you help?

We need YOU to help us keep this support available for everyone who needs it. Join us this 1st April for Step Up for Stomas – Active April.

Every donation, every step, and every show of support will help us continue our purpose of existing to make a positive difference for anyone impacted by any kind of stoma.

Let’s walk together, let’s make an impact, and let’s show the world that no one with a stoma has to face their journey alone. Will you step up with us? 💜
