We’re excited to announce the launch of our second ‘Active Ostomates – At home’ programme, our Virtual Art classes.

Starting on Thursday 14th May and running for four weeks these classes are aimed at people of all abilities, you don’t need to be a Banksy or a Leonardo Da Vinci to take part!

Colostomy UK are looking to create a memory quilt to record ostomates experience of living with a #stoma during the Coronavirus lockdown, and we’d love you to take part.

In this ConvaTec sponsored post Sarah who’s run 12 marathons since stoma surgery, talks about making the most of your stoma journey

It’s vital for our health, especially during lockdown to stay physically and mentally active. We are proud to launch our ‘Active Ostomates – At Home’, a range of online classes as part of our Active Ostomates programme.

“We’re in this together, and I’m proud to say our team are working hard to find new ways to deliver vital support, virtually while you stay safe at home”

A message from us…

Colostomy UK, like so many charities across the UK, has been hugely affected by the cancellation of thousands of fundraising events, so we’re delighted that the organisers of the biggest mass participation sports events have come together to create a new campaign to raise vital funds to save the UK’s charities; and that we can be part of it.
