“”
Whilst I don't dwell on mistakes made in the past, I do wish I had started volunteering with Crohn’s & Colitis UK much sooner. I'd recommend it to everyone. It does take a bit of energy and commitment, but I feel you get more than enough back. Everyone involved is very supportive and understanding, especially with new folks.”
