Restaurant and Restroom Access Cards

Restroom Access Card:

We understand the difficulties of needing to use a restroom urgently, especially for patients with gastrointestinal conditions. This can be a problem when public restrooms are not available, or when establishments require you to make a purchase first. To help you discreetly explain your needs, download our complimentary restroom access card intended for stores, gas stations, and other locations.

Restaurant Access Card:

We understand how challenging it can be to communicate your dietary restrictions to restaurant staff, especially when you require specific accommodations due to your gastrointestinal condition. This could include requesting substitutions on the menu, ordering from the children’s menu, or even bringing your own food from home to avoid triggering your symptoms. While there is no guarantee that all restaurants will adhere to your requests, presenting this card can simplify the process of explaining your situation, reducing the stress and frustration that often come with dining out.

The cards are small enough to fit in your wallet and are intended to be shared with wait staff.

Like a traditional walk, participants register to be active to get credit for steps taken during the event. However, this event goes beyond a step goal by also awarding points to participants for self-care, wellness, and outreach activities.
