PACCMAN Study - Patient and Public Involvement day - 12 October 2026

Researchers and NHS staff at Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust would like to invite adults diagnosed with Crohn's Disease to a patient and public involvement (PPI) day on Monday 12 October 2026 at the Soda Bread Cafe, St Pauls Square, Birmingham.

The event will take place at 3:30pm with refreshments provided.

 

The aim of the PPI event is to gather input from adults aged 18 and over living with Crohn's Disease to inform and help shape a study looking into detecting Crohn's Disease before it becomes symptomatic.

 At the PPI event, participants will have the opportunity to discuss their views with the hospital gastroenterology team; Crohn's nurses and hospital surgical team along with the study research team.

 

This event is NOT organised by Crohn's & Colitis UK and, therefore, we cannot take responsibility for your involvement in the research.
