Remember September 2026

Support my challenge to fight for a world without pancreatic cancer

I've decided to take on a physical challenge in September, both to give me something to work to as I look to rebuild my physical health and because, whilst I'm not personally affected by or know of anyone in my life facing Pancreatic cancer, we do share a medication (Creon, which also treats my Pancreatic Exocrine Insufficiency, aka PEI) and an afflicted organ.
I am also a Type 1 (insulin injection controlled) diabetic, diagnosed at age ten and currently an unfit but young forty-seven years of age.
Creon is a crucial drug for treatment of Pancreatic cancer and for the past two-plus years has been in critical short supply across Europe. It's absence will leave more patients in a worse condition.
I can't eat without Creon but absurdly feel as though I'm taking the medicine from those in greater need than I. If I can at least manage this challenge, then I will do it.
Please consider donating, and thank you! My target is £200 🙂
