💜 Katie’s Climb 2026

Katie’s Climb is a very special event held in loving memory of Catherine (AKA Katie), on her birthday, and is a time of year close to the heart of everyone at the Catherine McEwan Foundation.

The climb up Conic Hill in Balmaha is about coming together — to remember, reflect, and walk with purpose. It’s not about speed or distance, but about community, connection, and honouring loved ones through shared action.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Loch Lomond, Katie’s Climb offers space for conversation, quiet reflection, and meaningful participation — welcoming people of all ages and abilities.

By taking part, you’re helping ensure that people living with IBD feel supported, understood, and never alone — today and in the future.
