This week marks a big moment for the 45,000 members of Crohn's & Colitis UK.
After a tough year, financially, we've had to make the difficult decision to postpone the sending of our award-winning member-exclusive magazine, Connect. However, when one door closes, another (digital) door opens.
This month will be the inaugural edition of Connect Now, a designated digital hub for our fantastic members. Each month, we'll bring you the best of our articles, news and updates, all put together in an easy-to-navigate area of our website.
We'll be updating our members each month by email to let them know when new content has been added.
Of course we're disappointed that the current situation has dictated that we just can't deliver our normal printed magazine. However, the opportunity to move this brilliant content into the digital space is one we've been wanting for so long - it'll let us connect with our members better, by giving them the information and news they want in a more timely and accessible way. We're hoping next year we'll be able to move back to print in some capacity, as we know our members really value Connect magazine, but in the meantime Connect Now represents a huge step forward for us and one we are very excited to be taking
Membership with Crohn's& Colitis UK starts at only £1.25 a month and, as well as the brilliant Connect Now, also comes with a Can't Wait Card to help access toilets urgently when out and about, and a Radar key for new members, which unlocks over 9000 accessible toilets across the UK.
You can also get in touch with our team by email or by calling 01727 734465.
