Olive and Amari are identical twins who were both diagnosed with Crohn's disease in their late teens, after battling with severe symptoms on and off and going to countless hospital appointments.

Coming from an alternative background, travelling and working in the circus, being thrown a long-term illness so early on changed their entire life, and it also changed their perspective on work as they quickly realised that keeping up with a normal 9 - 5 was off the cards, a realisation that kick-started their business, Ciao Bella.

They aspire to use their platform to help raise money for the charity and awareness for the illness, and show that anything is possible, regardless of what life throws at you.

Most Importantly Olive and Amari aspire to champion the notion that while life with IBD can be scary, overwhelming and unpredictable, it can also be bold, brilliant and exciting.
