About this event

- Location Royal Society of Medicine
- Organised by Medicine and Me, Crohn’s in Childhood Research Association
The Royal Society of Medicine and Crohn’s in Childhood Research Association (CICRA) are pleased to invite you to a friendly and supportive meeting for families who have a child or young adult with Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis or IBDU. These families will be able to meet and chat with each other, share experiences, and hopefully build friendships and support networks during the day.
This meeting will bring together representatives from the medical community who specialise or are interested in the area of paediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Speakers will discuss key areas of concern to parents and families of children and young adults with IBD, including the psychological impact of paediatric IBD and and coping with IBD, the importance of diet & nutrition in IBD, latest treatments and medication, very early onset IBD (VEOIBD), latest research, and more. Following this, there will be an opportunity to take part in a question-and-answer session with experts working in specific fields of Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
For teenagers attending, there is an opportunity to attend a separate discussion group, allowing them to share experiences with others of a similar age and without parents being present.
For those families who have young children, there will be children’s entertainment available to keep young children occupied during the event.
We would like to thank our anonymous donor for their generous support enabling this platform for patient focused charities and free access to the Medicine and Me series.
By attending, you will:
- Receive updates on the latest research and treatment methods
- Enhance your understanding of the psychological impact and challenges of living with IBD
- Learn strategies and skills to cope with IBD
