Colostomy UK are hosting two free swimming taster sessions for ostomates at Sheppey Leisure Centre in March, giving you the opportunity to enjoy a relaxed swim in a supportive, ostomate–only environment.

We are delighted to announce that, as part of our Active Ostomates project, we have teamed up with Stress Free Outdoors to offer a great deal to ostomates and their families who would like to take advantage of the ‘Great Outdoors.’
