Our community needs you

Around one in 120 people in the UK have Crohn’s Disease or Ulcerative Colitis, navigating life with an unpredictable condition that could flare up at any time. And the impact can be devastating: plans turned upside down; work and education on hold; relationships and wellbeing under strain; dreams for the future paused. 

No one should face that alone. That’s where we come in.

It's time for change and we're leading the way

  • We’re transforming understanding of Crohn’s and Colitis.
  • We’re uniting researchers, patients and healthcare professionals to set out a roadmap to a cure.
  • We’re driving improvements in diagnosis, treatment and care.
  • And we’re supporting people to live well. 

But we can't do all this alone. Donate now and help us change what it means to live with these lifelong, incurable gut conditions.
