Hi, I have one but it was given to me by the colorectal nurse at the hospital. I have Crohn's but I have a colostomy bag. Willow has sent you a link to apply for one 👍

salts medilink provide a card

hi

I was just reading your post, I'm new on this site and I hope to help anyone anyway I can.

I also have IBD specifically Crohn's disease.

The answer to your question is Crohn's and Colitis UK. This is where I got mine from.

You can also get a key for public toilets. I'm sorry I don't know exactly where to get this but will research and get back to you.

Found it. Its called a RADAR Key and you can get one from https:crm.disabilityrightsuk.org

I hope this helps a lot.

Regards Michelle.

cool i knew you could get a key but wasnt to sure where from so will be contacting them.. i know Asda are being very helpful with regards to use of disabiled toilets by putting up signs stating that a disability can not always be seen...

also be aware the toilet card may not always work as someone with CD tried to use a toilet at well known burger fast food store and was refused by the manager and removed from store by their security

As a mum of Crohns disease sufferer I can say mostly people are ok with the cant wait card but sometimes they are afraid it is something they can catch...I think the card should say this person has a medical need but is not contagious.
