About

Although much IBD research is already undertaken in the national countries of Europe (and on other continents across the world) through one-off, multi-centre and multi country studies there remains a shortage of funding. Here in Europe with many of the European Federation of Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis Associations - EFCCA associations not involved in medical research projects we see this research foundation initiative being able to add a new dimension - through the involvement of those who are diagnosed and those people with some connection to the broad area of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases and related conditions.

There are many at present who do not have the opportunity to support much needed research in areas not currently funded or inadequately funded by existing sponsors and governments so the new foundation will be available for those people too.

We believe that citizens, corporations, foundations and trusts, both in Europe and in other parts of the world, may wish to support this EFCCA initiative in establishing a IBD Research Foundation for Europe The Foundations Bank details are shown in this website and we welcome all donations.
