Eurordis categorise a rare or “orphan” disease as one which affects less than 1 in 2000 people. That certainly makes pseudomyxoma peritonei rare but how rare do you think it is?

Your next poo could save your life.

Just a tiny sample detects signs of cancer before you notice anything wrong.

If you’re sent a bowel cancer screening kit, put it by the loo. Don't put it off.

In Europe, there are estimated to be 22 people per million each year living with pseudomyxoma peritonei.

Merry Christmas everyone; whatever you're doing this year, enjoy it.
Thank you all for your support during 2022. We're having a break too to spend time with our families but we'll check in on our socials from time to time.

We have been able to assist patients and their families with over £6000 in family assistance grants over the last year. Our family assistance grants have helped beneficiaries sleep more soundly at night. Priceless.

Being able to pay for caregiver accommodation has been a hugely rewarding experience for us all. Relieving stress and worry for families at a really difficult time is one of the main motivators for this little charity. #pmpsurvivor #appendixcancer #psesudomyxomaperitonei
