<p>In August 2017, Crohn’s and Colitis UK in partnership with the Royal College of
General Practitioners (RCGP) launched a new Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) toolkit:
an online resource for general practitioners (GPs) and healthcare professionals designed
to improve understanding of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, collectively known
as IBD. The Toolkit was developed as part of a 12 month project on IBD, and includes
a range of resources for GPs to improve detection of inflammatory bowel disease and
to support primary care clinicians in treating, managing and referring patients with
the condition.</p><p> </p><p>The Toolkit was promoted at events across the United
Kingdom and an IBD Twitter chat with an expert panel was held in February 2018. The
Toolkit, regional events and Twitter session were all promoted to GPs via the RCGP
website and newsletter and more widely by Crohn’s and Colitis UK. The Toolkit can
be found at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="http://www.rcgp.org.uk/clinical-and-research/resources/toolkits/inflammatory-bowel-disease-toolkit.aspx"
