Survey: Travelling with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Crohn’s and Colitis UK works to reduce discrimination and barriers felt by those living with IBD. To help us do that, we would like to better understand your travelling experiences and what could be done to make travelling an easier and more comfortable experience. 

Please let us know by completing the Travelling with IBD survey, which has been developed together with Takeda UK Ltd. (one of our Corporate partners) and IBD Passport, run by IBD Nurse Specialist Kay Greveson. 

The survey should only take 5-10 minutes to complete and will allow us to understand if more needs to be done by care providers, pharmaceutical companies and the travel industry to help make people with IBD more comfortable whilst travelling. 

The results of the survey will be published in medical literature and may be used for media activity. However, this questionnaire is anonymous and individual results are completely confidential. 

If you have a holiday coming up, our information sheets may help you to plan your trip and feel more confident about travelling away from home:

• Travel and IBD - covers how best to plan for your trip and answers some of the most commonly asked questions around vaccinations, packing medications, medical documents and travelling with a stoma
• Insurance and IBD - gives information on arranging insurance for your time away and includes a list of insurance companies some of our members have found useful.
