1st - 7th December 2025
This week takes place from the 1st - 7th December every year and aims to raise awareness about living with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. As a largely hidden and misunderstood illness, the majority of people don't appreciate the impact living with the illness can have on sufferers. Awareness week exists to try and change that.
Keep an eye on our social media channels this week, as every day we will be sharing thoughts from within the IBD community - including young people, parents/carers, and medical professionals.
If you want to get involved and help promote awareness, there are lots of things you can do:
- Follow us on social media. Like, comment, and share our posts so more people see them!
- Share your own story - on your own pages or via CICRA at support@cicra.org.
- Donate, purchase items from our shop, or buy Christmas draw tickets. You can help us support children and families affected by IBD
- Fundraise. Now is a great time to think about taking part in events next year. We have some great events on our website, or contact fundraising@cicra.org for more ideas.
