Welcome

Hi
If you have Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis this site is for you. It is not always easy to make other people understand just what makes you ill and not always able to do things that your friends do, so we hope that this site will be of interest to you.

Although the interactive part is not really interactive yet we hope later on to have bulletin boards so that you can send messages to others your own age.  For the time being there is a joke book and some games.  Under ‘Help & Support’ there are stories from other young people

If you would like to know about your illness there is information written especially for you about hospital visits, treatments, how to cope at school and why you sometimes cannot eat properly like your friends.

There is also a penpal section and questions that children have asked the Doctor.

Please tell your parents or carers that you have visited this site and ask them to click on to the adult site on the home page for information for them.
