Information on food and diet, made easier to digest.

Food can be an important part of life. Beyond giving us the nutrients and energy we need to survive, food can also bring joy and social connection. But we know that if you're living with Crohn's or Colitis, food can be a source of confusion and worry. It can be hard to sort food facts from food fiction, and to know what your diagnosis might mean for you and your diet.

More than 750 people joined our first webinar on this topic last year. Specialist dietitian Katie's presentation was praised for being 'helpful and practical' and 'interesting, informative, clear and succinct'. A number of people said they wanted to hear more from Katie, and we listened! We are delighted to welcome her back this year. 

Katie says:

"I was quite overwhelmed by the positive response, the level of interest in the impact of diet on this condition, and how many people were in need of dietary advice and support. I was really pleased to be asked to talk again this year, and hope to share my knowledge with more people living with IBD across the UK who may not be fortunate enough to have access to a dietitian in their local area."

We're also grateful to be joined by Chris, who lives with Ulcerative Colitis and will share his personal experience of navigating food choices before and after ileostomy. 

While this webinar will revisit some of the key topics covered in last year's webinar on food and diet, we'll be exploring them in greater depth, with more time to share practical tips and answer some of your questions. Whether you're joining us for the first time or returning for a deeper dive, we hope you'll take away something new. 

When? Monday 26 October, 6.30–8pm
