Want to join me in making a difference? I’m skipping 123 times a day through August to help in raising money to benefit Crohn's & Colitis UK, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me as it affects my family directly. My wife Emma, on IG as “keepingthecolon” has recently suffered massively with a flare up from her condition and it’s reminded me what a horrible disease it is and how it affects so many people. I saw that Crohn’s & Colitis were doing a Big Summer Skip and wanted to join in and help make a difference!

More information about Crohn's & Colitis UK: Crohns Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are the two main forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease, affecting more than 500,000 people in the UK. That’s 1 in every 123 people, yet it is largely a hidden disease, and one that causes stigma, fear and isolation. It’s thought that many people with the condition go undiagnosed and suffer in silence.
