Our ambassador Candice and her team took part in the Kiltwalk for ENDO1000. 👟
She spoke to the fundraising team about her advocacy work, fundraising journey and the hope she still has for the future of endometriosis care.
You can read her story here: giving.ed.ac.uk/fundraise-yo…
ALT "ENDO1000 is about understanding the full-body impact of endometriosis. It’s giving women like me hope — and for the next generation, it could change everything."

We loved last weeks UK Endometriosis Network event 👏
Taking place at the University of Edinburgh we heard so many speakers sharing the work they do to help those living with #endometriosis, and about the life-changing research taking place in labs across the UK.
