(England: 13,148 / Scotland: 1,491 / Wales: 622 / Northern Ireland: 277 / Other: 337)

NACC is campaigning for more specialist nurses for Colitis and Crohn’s Disease.  Please add your name to support the campaign.

Our aim is to encourage more national recognition and support for the role of the specialist nurse in supporting patients who have Colitis or Crohn’s Disease. In a recent survey of NACC members, only 26% said they had access to a specialist nurse at their hospital.

NACC will be taking the petition for more nurses to the various Health Ministers in the UK countries. The more names on the petition, the more weight it will carry.

Please encourage your family, friends, doctors, nurses and colleagues to add their names in support of the campaign. We are asking for your postal and email address to make the petition valid, but we will only use these to contact you if you have accepted the option for NACC membership information or future updates on the campaign.

You can also support the campaign by contacting your MP, MSP or Welsh AM.
