Living360 and Crohn鈥檚 & Colitis UK partnership raises 拢1,000 through awareness campaign聽
Living360, 芒果77福利鈥檚 lifestyle brand, has completed its editorial partnership with Crohn’s & Colitis UK, raising 192% of its initial fundraising goal through a multi-platform awareness campaign that extended across all digital channels.
The campaign culminated in Living360鈥檚 acting deputy editor, Evelyn Richards, completing the Edinburgh Marathon in support of the charity. Reflecting on the experience, Evelyn said: 鈥淭he marathon was one of the toughest physical challenges I鈥檝e ever done as temperatures reached around 23C and there were long stretches of exposed heat throughout the route. However, I kept reminding myself what I was running for, and the stories we鈥檇 spent weeks helping tell through this campaign helped carry me through the hardest moments and the finishing line.鈥
The six-week partnership combined editorial storytelling, social content and fundraising initiatives designed to spotlight the realities of living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), while encouraging conversations around chronic illness, visibility and resilience.

Evelyn added: 鈥淔rom the start, we wanted this partnership to feel honest, informative and human at its core. Crohn鈥檚 and colitis are often invisible conditions, and hearing directly from those willing to share their experiences was very powerful. It was incredibly rewarding to see how strongly audiences connected with the stories.鈥
