Meet me at Ostomy Toronto on Oct 16, 2014
I’ve been invited to speak at the Ostomy Toronto meeting on October 16, 2014. This will be in a live interview format, so I’ll be answering all kinds of questions for the group.
#getyourbellyout – the campaign that changed IBD advocacy
We have so many amazing advocates in the IBD and ostomy community, but one team of advocates really stands out with a campaign they’ve been able to turn into an international sensation, and that’s the #GetYourBellyOut movement.
Started in March 2014, the #getyourbellyout team is made up of four incredibly hard-working ladies: Victoria Marie (twitter @colitisandme), Gem Gem (twitter @wales28), Sahara (twitter @Sahara88uk) and Lorna (twitter @lornamary_1981).
