Find the right UK organisation to support
Choose what matters most to you, and see which UK organisations best match it.
If you want to donate to a cause related to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the UK, it isn’t always obvious where your money will do the most good. Some organisations run helplines and support groups, some fund research, some focus on educating patients and health professionals, and some spend their time pushing for better care and funding. Some do a mix of these.
Tell us what you care about most below, and the list will reorder to put the closest matches first. Nothing here is sponsored: every organisation listed already appears on the main UK resources page, and where we have checked a charity’s spending figure against its published accounts, such as the share of its spending that goes on programmes, it’s shown on its card. A figure like that shows where money goes, not how much good an organisation does.
Some of these organisations receive funding from pharmaceutical companies, as many patient organisations do, and it is published in their annual reports or in the companies’ own reports. It makes no difference to whether or where an organisation appears here.
