Visit the shop Westminster Hall Debate on IBD and EmploymentThe Labour MP for Islwyn, Chris Evans, has said the government needs to ensure that any changes to the welfare system do not harm the employment opportunities for people living with inflammatory bowel disease. IBD covers a range of chronic conditions including Chron's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, and was the subject of a short Westminster Hall debate on 13 January 2012. A recent report by the Chron's and Colitis UK charity found that 68% of people with IBD felt they had "little or no control" over their working conditions, with a third feeling that they had minimal or no support from their employer. The charity is urging employers to improve the working conditions of people with IBD, such as time for hospital appointments and flexible working. To see the debate follow the link below:

First, the business bit, this is our proud history and will bring you uptodate:
The Merseyside Group was the first to be started by Crohn's and Colitis UK, formally known as NACC, in 1982 and has made substantial progress in the past three decades in terms of support and assistance for people with crohn's and colitis and developing strong working partnerships with hospitals in the Merseyside region.
2012 presents new opportunities and a refreshed group has started covering the area in January kicking off a new year with a new outlook. There are currently 9 of us in a new organising team looking for you to join us in informal and friendly events to simply share experiences, raise questions, discuss concerns or even just be a friendly face and come and chill out with us.
