The PHA Group is pleased to announce it has been appointed by national charity Crohn’s and Colitis UK, the UK’s leading charity in the battle against Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

The PHA Group will be supporting Crohn’s and Colitis UK with a three-month campaign to raise awareness of the charity’s annual WALK IT events.

Crohn’s and Colitis UK is the national charity leading the battle against Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, fighting to achieve a better quality of life for the 300,000 people in the UK suffering physically and emotionally due to these and other forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. The WALK IT events raise funds and vital awareness of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis and take place across eight locations in the UK.

Crohn’s and Colitis UK communications manager, Juliet Chambers comments, “We have had great results when working with PHA in the past, and we are excited to continue this relationship for our WALK IT events. PHA have demonstrated they understand how vital WALK IT is for raising awareness of IBD and creating a sense of community for those with the conditions.”

Shelley Frosdick, director of consumer PR at the PHA Group said, “Crohn’s and Colitis UK’s WALK IT events are so important for those with IBD. The events help to raise money, but also provide a fun day for supporters of the charity to meet and take on a challenge. We’re delighted to be working with the charity on a campaign that helps increase awareness and understanding of Crohn’s & Colitis.”
