Can you Step Up For CICRA this World IBD Day?
World IBD Day is fast approaching on Tuesday 19th May 2026. This year's theme is IBD has no borders: Access to IBD care, highlighting the fact that where a person lives still determines whether they receive a timely diagnosis, specialist support and effective treatment.
This year, we are asking our supporters if they can Step Up For CICRA by taking part in a simple fundraising challenge during the month of May, raising money and awareness to help all those living with IBD.
The activity you choose is up to you - perhaps you can set yourself a daily step challenge? Or complete a total amount of steps by the end of the month? (Climbing Mount Everest is 58,070 steps apparently!).
All you need to do is set up a fundraising page. If you are happy to share your journey online, this is a great way of raising awareness as you go. Use #StepUpCICRA so we can see what you are up to!
