We are bringing together people from across the country who want a better life for people today and a world free from Crohns and Colitis tomorrow.

Funds raised through WALK IT directly enable us to do vital new research, answer more calls from people needing help and provide patient packs to hospitals across the UK. But there is so much more to do.

So in 2018, with your support, we are going to be bigger than ever with 8 WALK IT events across the UK. Come as a team, bring your friends, family and dogs or come alone and meet new people with shared experiences.

These fantastic community days, with walks starting and finishing at the fun-filled event village, have entertainment, food and fun for all ages. Every 5km and 10km route will take in iconic sights and landmarks, as well as helping you discover secret gems.

WALK IT fundraisers make a huge difference by ensuring a better quality of life for people with Crohns Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. So, this year we are challenging you to get sponsored and WALK IT together with family or friends to raise £100 or more. This could help pay for 2,000 people to get the information they need about Crohn's and Colitis. We are here to support you with your fundraising- we will send you a fundraising guide with lots of ideas to help you reach (or smash!) your target.

However you decide to WALK IT you will be joining hundreds of like-minded Crohns and Colitis UK supporters for a fun day, standing strong against stigma and taking part in our biggest fundraising event ever!
