What the petition asks
Crohn`s and Colitis suffers know only to well how quickly the need to go to the toilet can happen and we have all had the embarrasing problem of being caught short whilst out in the car, it is near impossible to be able to find somewhere to park the car and get to a toilet in time.
The blue badge allows disabled people ease of parking, Crohn`s and Colitis can result in the need for urgent toilet visits resulting in uncomfortable stomach cramps followed by chronic diarrhea, it is very difficult to do every day tasks without it effecting our lives. We would really benefit from a scheme like the blue badge to enable us to park where necessary so we can get to the toilet without the worry and embarrasment of having an accident and being issued with parking tickets
