A Gluten Free Podcast
Episode 243

On today's episode we have an inspiring story from the UK about a young girl named Harley. It’s told from the perspective of her father Glenn Hansen, detailing how his daughter’s personal struggles with coeliac disease led her to climb the mountain top to raise funds and awareness, figuratively and literally!

What we'll cover:
* How I found out about this news story within our gluten free community from a former podcast guest and a podcast listener connecting me with Glenn, the father of Harley
* Harley's coeliac disease symptoms leading up to her coeliac disease diagnosis
* Avoiding the gluten challenge and diagnosing off raised coeliac disease antibody levels
* How Harley, Glenn and the family have adjusted to gluten free life for Harley
* Struggles Harley and the family have
* How much Harley and the family have learned since her coeliac disease diagnosis
* Harley beginning to advocate and educate others about her coeliac disease and gluten free diet
* How the idea for the climb came about
* Preparing Harley for the climb
* Raising money and awareness through the climb
* Response from the coeliac disease and gluten free community within the UK and throughout the world
