We wore purple in this week's WIP meeting in support of Crohn's and Colitis Awareness Month. 💜

This year's theme is Better Beginnings for Brighter Futures, spotlighting the cost of delayed diagnosis. Here are some facts about Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD) that you may not know:

1 in 3 people with IBD have symptoms for over a year before receiving a diagnosis. It takes more than 5 years for over 10% of patients to be diagnosed, and over 5 years for nearly 50% to experience remission.

Holly, our Marketing Coordinator, feels lucky to have been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in her teens. "It was such a relief to have a name for it after over a year of anxiety over my health. There's so much shame and isolation associated with an invisible illness; I missed out on a lot. But, I know that my journey was much smoother than most."

For the past 40 years, Crohn’s & Colitis Australia has been empowering people to live fearlessly, , and receive the help they need.

Be sure to keep an eye out on the 19th, as 120 sites, landmarks and buildings in Australia light up purple to shine a spotlight on IBD!
