Make a difference to those who need to live gluten free

Getting involved in a challenge event and fundraising for Coeliac UK, no matter how small or large, can be a fantastic way to make a real difference to the lives of those who have to live without gluten.  

We heard from Freya who completed the Cardiff half marathon for Coeliac UK. Here she tells us about her motivations for taking on the challenge and how rewarding it was as she prepared for the event. 

Thank you Freya! We are extremely grateful for every pound you raised which will help us to continue our vital support for those who need it. 

We need your support to go even further

We are not Government funded and rely on the generosity of supporters and fundraisers to continue our work. All donations help improve the lives of those with coeliac disease who need to live without gluten helping us refine services we offer our members and campaign to develop awareness of the issues around the disease and fund crucial research.

Your support really does make a difference.

Remember, if you are a tax payer you can make any gift go further through gift aid. Coeliac UK can reclaim the basic tax rate of 25% on your gift, meaning when you give £10 we will receive £12.50.
