CiCRA (Crohn’s in Childhood Research Association) is dedicated to Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis in children. It aims to create a wider understanding of the condition and raise enough funds to support medical research that will be able to find more effective treatments and an eventual cure.

I'm partly doing this because of a top mate of mine Oli Monks, who just happens to be an awesome individual who is going to raise £9,000 (far more knowing him) for CiCRA by completing 9 different challenges by the summer of 2018 (again, he'll probably do it far before that). His passion and complete dedication to the cause is inspiring, and I'm just proud to be part of supporting him and his very cool little brother Nicky.

I also never thought I'd ever be able to do something this physically challenging, so it'll be great to achieve something huge personally for such an important cause.
