The Weston Super Half will set off from Marine Parade at the entrance to The Grand Pier. It will take in the glorious sites of Weston-super-Mare and the surrounding picturesque Somerset villages and countryside in this single lap, closed road, fast half marathon event. And the pièce de résistance, a totally unique opportunity to finish quarter of a mile out to sea on Weston's Grand Pier.
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.
