Join us at one of our great Midlands running events for our annual Leicestershire Half Marathon on Sunday 23rd February and take the opportunity to race around this unique route. This ROAD CLOSED half marathon will start and finish on the racecourse before heading past Prestwold Hall and around the race track and onto surrounding rural roads. Each mile is accurately marked out with distance flags and we have plenty of helpers to keep you on track and to encourage you on your way to the finish.
CICRA is dedicated to creating a wider understanding of Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly as it affects children and young adults. We provide support and understanding for children and young people and their families. We raise funds to sponsor Research Fellowships and PhD studentships and give grants to support approved medical and scientific research projects in major gastroenterological centres nationwide. Investment in research has led to new treatments and has helped to train many of the specialists who today treat children throughout the UK.
