Hear My Voice: untold narratives of non-Caucasian adults living with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Researchers at The University of Law are looking for adults from non-Caucasian backgrounds to take part in interviews to share their experiences of living with Crohn's or Colitis. 

Researchers at The University of Law are looking for people to take part in their new research project. They would like people from non-Caucasian backgrounds, living with Crohn's or Colitis, to take part in online interviews. These interviews will help them explore key themes in IBD healthcare among under-represented groups. 

To take part you must be: 

  • 18 years or older,
  • from a Black Caribbean, Black African, Asian, Middle Eastern or Mixed Heritage background,
  • Diagnosed with Crohn's or Colitis for at least 1 year,
  • living in the UK for the past 5 years,
  • have no other gastrointestinal conditions. 

 

Interviews will take place online and will last around 1 hour. The researcher will be flexible with timings and breaks throughout. 

 

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.
