Another Bad Situation for Crohn's Sufferer

A little while ago we brought you a news story about a lady who'd been refused use of a toilet in a Job Centre. Now we have yet another case of shopkeepers refusing people in need. A gentleman from Dewsbury was turned away from a Wilkinson's store when he asked to use the toilet. He was told they were for staff only. Luckily a nearby butchers was able to help before disaster struck.

It is mentioned in the article (found here) that there is a card for people but you have to pay. Just to clear that up - the Crohn's and Colitis UK "Can't Wait" card is part of a wider membership package from the charity. Membership fees are very favourable - £15 annually and free to many (OAPs, students and young adults) and there are concessionary rates for those on low income.

For more information on the Can't Wait Card, head over to the main Crohn's and Colitis UK website for all the membership benefits, fees and how to join.
