Share your pancreatitis story

Sharing your pancreatitis story is a powerful way of raising vital awareness about the condition and the impact it has.

Our pancreatitis awareness campaign, Kranky Panky, brings people together, from those sharing their own experiences of living with pancreatitis to families sharing stories on behalf of and in memory of their loved ones.

Every story shared has the power to change how people understand digestive symptoms and conditions. We want everyone to feel seen, heard and included. That’s why we’re especially keen to hear from people from underrepresented communities. By sharing your pancreatitis story, you’ll help raise vital awareness and help us build a community that truly reflects us all.

Use the form below to submit your interest in sharing your pancreatitis story.

Please note that submission of this form does not guarantee that your story will be shared. As a small but mighty team, we are unable to respond to everyone. If an opportunity arises to share your story, we will be in touch. Thank you.
