I’m fundraising for Bowel Cancer UK

Dear friends,

I’m taking part in Walkies Together this September to raise funds and help save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer. Please support me and my fundraising.

Bowel cancer is the UK's second biggest cancer killer with more than 16,500 people dying annually of a disease that is preventable, treatable and curable.

The funds I raise will help to provide support and information to patients and their families, fund and support research into bowel cancer and support campaigns for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all.

Gift Aid makes your donation worth more. For every pound you give, we can get an extra 25p. I would like Bowel Cancer UK to claim Gift Aid on this donation, as well as all donations I have made over the past four years and in the future. I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donation in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. Please notify the charity if you want to cancel this declaration; change your name or home address or no longer pay sufficient tax on your income and/or capital gains. If you pay Income Tax at the higher or additional rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due to you, you must include all your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment tax return or ask HM Revenue and Customs to adjust your tax code.

Evening walkies...

Tuesday 17th Sep

There is nothing like an evening Walkies Together when you get to look at the supermoon. Ps. I am really impressed what a cool photo can a smartphone camera take these days.

The only way is up after the day starting like this...🤦🏻

Friday 13th Sep

This is what I got into my porridge thinking it was ground cinnamon... The moral of the day... read the label in full! Ps. I hate wasting food. After adding apple marmalade and lots of rasins I ate it. But I don't think I will be repeating, nor recommending my recipe...🤣

Hello,

I know I promised to cover the symptoms but, as per usual, I got a little bit ahead of myself...

Thought it might be more appropriate to and some more context to it first.
But have no fear. They are coming shortly...Those that know me well know I always keep my promises.

Happy watching.

ps. Hopefully this is the last episode split into two links following my discovery mentioned few days ago.

OMG! Thank you All!

Guys,

I really did not expect that. I am overwhelmed with your generosity and hitting over £100 in donations. Koko, I and whole Bowel Cancer community really appreciate every single penny. You're getting us closer to the moment, when a bowel cancer is 100% curable.

I decided to raise the target to £250.

This way everyone visiting the page will know that the fundraising is still happening.

Once again from the bottom of my heart - a massive THANK YOU!

Apologies evening...

Wednesday 11th Sep

So I was playing with the coding - tried to make the posts look neater. I failed terribly... It now needs someone who actually knows what they are doing 😅 sorry Dan...😇

But, I managed to record few more videos. So they are ready in the pipeline - as soon as we (Dan - pretty please 😅) fix those bugs...

Oh, and I discovered, that the streaming platform, that I had a little rant in my previous post, actually allows you to post longer videos...🤦🏻😅 So apologies to you too guys... you're OK.

And finally, an advance apologies to you all, who will be watching them - you're potentially going to see me talking for a bit longer than a minute now! (Yay... - said the audience).

OK, no more apologies. Time to sleep.

Check it out!

Check out this view 😍, and your morning 💩 too.

Hi all,

Welcome to another episode Walkies together with Marek and Koko.

In this epizode you can find some info on really shocking stats info.

Please donate to help knock off the bowel cancer from the shameful 2nd place as the most common cause of cancer death in the UK. Thank you in advance.

ps. I have just learned, that certain streaming platform only allows 60 sec videos for free, hece you are up for a treat - a double whammy episode, if I manage with the coding to add two links LOL

Hello Dear Friends, Colleagues and Total Strangers who are visiting this page.

Welcome to Walkies together with Marek and Koko.

Koko and I are rasing funds to support Bowel Cancer UK charity.

Some of you may know, that this cause is close to the bottom of my bottom, following stage 2b diagnosis and tumor removal op in May 2023.
I consider myself very lucky, that my case ended up with fitted stoma, and I feel really privileged to be here and be able to raise money and awareness.
Sadly, many others weren't that fortunate...

That's why we need to flip the stats to save lives! It's absolutely doable if you know what to look for.

Therefore, I hope to share with you few posts and videos throughout September. I have never ever done anything like this so apologies in advance...
Hopefully, you will take away something from my input, that will save someone's life.

Happy watching! And PLEASE donate generously, but only if you can afford it. Thank you all!

ps.1 Dan, than you for making it possible to add working links to my posts.
ps.2 Please ignore my unsuccessful post attempts below. Sadly the page doesn't offer me an option to remove them.
