Update 19 May 2024

Due to a change in Facebook policy, it is no longer possible to stream Facebook Group feeds to websites. We are very disappointed with this change, but sadly it is beyond our control. Of course, it was always the case that to fully enjoy the benefits of the Facebook Group (including the ability to post and react to posts) it was necessary to join the group – which you can still do. The group now has over 1,500 members and is very active. To join the group, tap on J Pouch Support (UK specific) and submit a join request. We look forward to welcoming you!
