#GetYourBellyOut campaign
Video Blogger Thaila Skye explains everything you need to know about the #GetYourBellyOut campaign which has been rapidly raising IBD awareness across social media.
What to do
You don't have to have Crohn's Disease or Ulcerative Colitis to take part in the campaign - everybody can get involved!
Take a photo of your tummy and share it on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, adding the #GetYourBellyOut hashtag.
If you don't want to share a photo of your tummy (but still want to get involved), you can go straight to making a donation by text or online.
How to donate
Send a text message saying IBDA99 and the donation amount to 70070.
For example if you wanted to donate £3, then you would text (without quotes):
"IBDA99 £3 to 70070"
If you can't make a text donation, then you can donate online instead at JustGiving.
All donations will go to Crohn's and Colitis UK.
