Story
We all feel "off colour" from time to time. But just imagine...
...not knowing whether the next bite of food will make you ill
...constant nausea and serious stomach pain as a way of life
...dealing with incontinence
...being made fun of by your peers
...having a tough time sitting through classes or a car journey
...being malnourished
...undergoing operations
...being constantly tired
This is just some of the suffering endured by 1000's of young people in the UK with IBD: Inflammatory Bowel Disease. It's a chronic, life-long disease - with no known cure.

Hi, I'm Roland and I work at ByteSnap Design.
I came across the struggle of kids with IBD through the CICRA charity. CICRA has worked tirelessly for many years to support families and young people affected by IBD.
When I discovered the vital work the CICRA does for youngsters with IBD - battling just to live a normal life - without any Government funding, I felt moved to help.
I love running, so have managed to persuade four other ByteSnap colleagues to join me in taking on the Wolf Run in June 2016 to raise money for this fantastic charity. We've dubbed ourselves the "ByteSnap Wolves".
So, for the next few weeks it means we electronic design consultants will be ditching the office mid-morning sugar rush, and hitting it harder in the gym.
Help us make a difference to thousands of young people battling pain and sometimes indignity and donate today. Please help the ByteSnap Wolves raise as much as possible in the next 5 weeks. Our target is £500, but want to raise much more for these young people!
Many thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
