Understanding disordered eating in people living with Crohn's and Colitis

Researchers at University of Birmingham are looking for adults diagnosed with Crohn's or Colitis to take part in an online focus group as part of a study looking at disordered eating and eating disorders. You do not need to have personal experience of disordered eating to take part.

This study by researchers at the University of Birmingham is looking to better understand disordered eating and eating disorders in people living with Crohn's and Colitis. 

To take part you must be:

  • over 18 
  • living with Crohn's or Colitis

You do not need to have personal experience of disordered eating/eating disorder to take part. 

 

The focus group will be held online, and will be an informal discussion with a non-clinical researcher. They will ask questions and invite you to share your views and lived experiences. Participants can choose not to answer any question if they want and may keep their cameras off during the session if they wish. 

 

By entering your details, you are not committing to take part, but your contact details will be forwarded to the researcher who will get in touch with you directly with more information. You will have the opportunity to change your mind at any time.

This research study is NOT organised by Crohn's & Colitis UK and, therefore, we cannot take responsibility for your involvement in the research.
