Nothing should get in the way of normalising the lives of ostomates globally.

The idea for U-CAN started late 2019 when Steve Sterling underwent colon cancer treatment, which led to him living with a temporary Ileostomy for 6 months.

Steve’s experience with the management of his stoma and the pouch emptying process led him to believe there had to be a better way.

With his background as a physiotherapist and a passion for disruption Steve set about creating his own solutions to make his life easier and more “normal”.

Things really stepped up a gear when Steve became a resident at CERI (Centre for Entrepreneurial Research & Innovation).

Steve now seeks partners in the business with a vision to nomalise the lives of ostomates globally and make a difference to the quality of life for people and planet.
