Your guardians of the gut are about to take a short break for the festivities.

We will close on Tuesday 24th December at midday and will re-open Thursday 2nd January at 9am.

This will mean we will not be available to take your calls or reply to your messages and e-mails during this festive break.

If you have urgent medical questions or concerns, please contact your GP or phone NHS 111 or 999 if it is a medical emergency.

Thank YOU for championing our cause for another year. We wouldn’t be here without you.

We’ll see you in 2025! 👋

Guts UK brand illustrations of the liver, gut and pancreas are round a Christmas tree with the Guts UK logo as the star on top. They are wearing Christmas hats and fancy dress and there are baubles, tinsel and bows on the tree.

For those living with digestive symptoms or conditions, celebrations can feel particularly tough. You can help Guts UK charity fund vital research into kinder treatments and brighter futures by donating today.

Thank you.

What do Guts UK charity do?

Guts UK is the charity for the digestive system from top to tail: the gut, liver and pancreas.

Our mission at Guts UK is to:

Provide expert information: We believe that information is power. When armed with the right information, patients can take control of their health and make informed decisions.
Raise public awareness: Our research shows that 58% of people are embarrassed to talk about their digestive condition or symptoms and 51% of people delay seeking advice for their symptoms for over 6 months. We empower people to speak up and seek help.
Fund life-changing, life-saving research: We are the only UK charity funding research into this misunderstood and underfunded area of health. It’s time the UK got to grips with guts.
