About us
Who we are
Guts UK is the national charity for the digestive system and we're here to help the UK get to grips with guts!
Our digestive systems have been underfunded, undervalued and misunderstood for decades. Guts UK exists to change that. Guts UK provides information and support for people affected by digestive conditions and symptoms. We’re currently the only UK charity that funds research into the entire digestive system.
People are suffering. People are dying. All because of a lack of knowledge about our guts.
Since 1971, we have funded more than 450 projects and invested over £16 million into life-changing medical research that leads to better diagnoses and kinder treatments for people affected by digestive conditions and symptoms across the UK.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
Equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) is integral to all we do, not only for all in our Guts community, but also for our staff, volunteers, and governance. The team at Guts UK, and our policies and procedures, reflect and understands the experiences of the community we support.
