Once again taking part in the Winter Walk for Endo, a cause that is very close to my heart. I have challenged myself to walk 10k to raise awareness and support for the 1 in 10 individuals who battle with endometriosis.

As many of you know, I underwent a hysterectomy in October as a result of my own journey with endometriosis and adenomyosis. The decision wasn't easy, but it was a necessary step in my 22 year fight. Now, just a few months later, I am determined to take part in this fundraiser for the second year in a row to help support others with the condition and support research to find other, less invasive and extreme ways of living with the disease.

Endometriosis is a chronic pain condition that affects 1 in 10 women and those assigned female at birth. Those suffering with condition are often faced with making challenging and difficult decisions during diagnosis, treatment and management of endometriosis.

Endometriosis UK exists to offer support and reliable information as well as fight and campaign for change and better treatment options.
