1 in 120 people in the UK live with Crohn’s or Colitis - lifelong, unpredictable and often misunderstood. We’re here to change that through research, support and bold campaigns. Crohn’s? Colitis? We’ll face it together. crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/our-… #Crohns #Colitis

It’s Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Week. It takes guts to talk about Crohn’s and Colitis, but we can do it and break the stigma. Sending love to everybody affected by these conditions. #CrohnsAndColitisAwarenessWeek

Thank you @A_J_Snowden for using your maiden speech in Parliament to share your wife Caroline's experience of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. We look forward to working with you and other MPs to tackle stigma and raise awareness of invisible conditions like Crohn's and Colitis.
