We will be looking to place some of these stories into regional press all around the UK during the Spring 2014, to raise awareness of Fatigue. These may also take the form of interviews.
70% of young people in 2007 when surveyed by the charity stated Fatigue” as their most noticeable symptom. As a result we won £500,000 from the Big Lottery Fund to investigate Fatigue further. This year, our Me and IBD survey of over 1,000 young people aged 16 – 29 indicated an even higher level of concern – even when not having a flare - 76% found it more of a problem than extreme pain or diarrhoea.
Our Fatigue project findings are due to be released in May/June 2014.
*This is for any age, so feel free to share with others.*
