Our information
At Crohn’s & Colitis UK we aim to make our information easy for everyone to understand. All about Crohn's and Colitis provides basic information about the conditions, what causes them, what symptoms you might get, the tests that you might have, and the treatments available. This information is written in plain English and helps to bust some of the jargon and myths you might hear. And it is now available in six different languages to help even more people understand about living with Crohn's and Colitis. These are:
Our Helpline
