Eight-year-old Sophie is taking on a big challenge to support Bowel Research UK – swimming 20 lengths of the pool!
Sophie has an undiagnosed bowel condition, so she knows firsthand how important research is in improving treatments and care for people like her. She also wants to help those affected by bowel cancer, a disease that has touched people close to her.
“I’ve never swum this far before, but I’m training hard and really want to do it!“, says Sophie.
Every donation makes a difference:
- £5 could pay for testing equipment in laboratories
- £10 could buy a lab coat for researchers
- £30 could fund research into how bowel tumours develop
- £50 could support vital research into early diagnosis of bowel cancer and other diseases.
