This corner of the website is meant to serve as a repository of magazine and newspaper articles about Ostomy Mates (previously called Swindon IA).  In addition any sound files and videos that relate to the association will also be added as they are discovered and new ones are created.  Ever since the inception of our association there have been many occasions when articles about Ostomy Mates / Swindon IA have appeared in newspapers and magazines.  Unfortunately some of the very old articles are no longer in anyone's possession but any that can be traced will be scanned and uploaded.  Going forward all artifacts in whatever format (text, sound or video) will be stored and referenced via this page.
