Beyond the Pouch

E4: Ant's Ulcerative Colitis Story & Greatest Moments with a Stoma

Pelican, Respond & Eakin Healthcare

In this episode of Beyond the Pouch, Ant opens up about being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis during university, how he manages a prolapsed stoma and adapting to stoma life while maintaining a positive energy throughout. 

Ant also touches on how he doesn't let his stoma hold him back — from becoming a ambassador for the ostomy community, to running his first London marathon with a stoma.
