Description

Welcome to Episode 3 in our 8-part podcast series on living with inflammatory bowel disease.

 

In this episode we're talking about how to advocate for yourself (and others, if you're a carer) to give your health the best opportunity to thrive.

 

Nigel and I give our opinions on what we think advocacy is and some examples of when we used to it to good effect, plus a personal anecdote of how not advocating can cause disadvantage,

We hope you enjoy this episode - as ever, we would love to hear your thoughts and feedback.
