Stoma Stroll 2015

I'm pleased to announce that our 2015 Stoma Stroll website is now open for registrations and donations. Our new website has been completely redesigned and features a photo from the Ostomy Halifax Stoma Stroll in 2014. New features this year include a totally new look, a scoreboard where you can tell at a glance which fundraisers are doing the best, room for national and local sponsors (logos and websites) as well as a clean looking front page and chapter pages. Register as an individual or as a team and help support Ostomy Canada Society's mission. The URL is the same as previous years - www.stomastroll.ca - Please spread the word!

Digestive Wellness

We recently participated in Mediaplanet’s Digestive Wellness campaign in which industry leaders and advocates came together to raise awareness of the millions of Canadians suffering from various digestive disorders including Celiac Disease, which can lead to major gastrointestinal problems and can be directly responsible for an array of illnesses including auto-immune diseases like Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease. The campaign provides valuable information on current treatments and nutritional diets for those living with digestive disorders. It was distributed through the National Post on March 31^st, 2015 and is published online: http://bit.ly/1xSUGTy
