August is #GastroparesisAwarenessMonth. 🩺 Gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying) disrupts the stomach muscles so food moves too slowly into the intestines. Symptoms include: nausea, vomiting, bloating, pain, and early fullness. We and @GutsCharityUK are raising awareness.

Help us fund research that changes lives. Whether it’s a monthly donation or marathon run, every contribution helps fight bowel cancer and disease. For every £1 we invest in early career research, that research attracts a further £3 in future funding
