At our spring meeting Swindon’s Ostomy Mates Association paid tribute to Frank Williams, who has stepped down from the position of chairman after around 25 years of outstanding voluntary service. During his leadership the association has grown into a vibrant community that hosts regular social events, offers invaluable mutual support, and has raised significant funds for the hospital. The picture shows Frank acknowledging his special gifts of appreciation, with the committee looking on.

Tonight two of the fabulous Kili team, .climbskili and will be featured on at 6:30pm! Hear them explain why they are climbing the biggest mountain in Africa for the charity, and what it means to them to be doing so with their ostomies.

Thank you to for the opportunity.

During this morning’s mid morning show with the lovely Anna Foster I am being joined by Liz to chat about the upcoming climb.

A fabulous day of awareness and advocacy for our ladies in Kenya 🇰🇪
