The Voice of IBD
Don’t miss The Voice of Inflammatory Bowel Disease – A manifesto for young people, created by young people aged 18 – 30 living with IBD in Ireland.
The manifesto not only gives an insight into what it can be like living with IBD, but also identifies critical challenges for this group and calls for action by the Government, employers, healthcare professionals and the general public.
An initiative of the Irish Society for Colitis and Crohn’s Disease (ISCC), this manifesto was supported by Abbott and Vhi Healthcare.
