May is Coeliac Awareness Month!

 So Let’s Talk All Things Gluten Free! 

May's here, and that means...

It's Coeliac Awareness Month!

...and if there’s ever a time to talk about gluten-free food, coeliac symptoms, and the real struggles (and wins!) of living with coeliac disease, this is it.

We’re championing Coeliac UK and Guts UK (aka the absolute legends leading the charge!) to help raise awareness, share real stories, and support anyone and everyone affected by coeliac disease.

Because we think gluten-free diets shouldn’t mean you're stuck with boring food. (And we try to prove this every day we step in the Chunk Gluten Free kitchen!!) 

 What is Coeliac Awareness Month All About?

Every May, Coeliac UK turns up the volume on awareness for coeliac disease, a serious autoimmune condition where eating gluten damages your gut lining (not ideal, right? 😬).

•  It affects 1 in 100 people in the UK
• But only 36% are medically diagnosed
•  That’s an estimated 500,000 people walking around with symptoms they don’t understand
• Coeliac UK’s goal? Help them recognise the signs, get diagnosed, and live better!

Symptoms vary (bloating, fatigue, brain fog, skin issues, stomach cramps - and more). You can take Coeliac UK’s online self-assessment tool to find out if you or someone you love might be affected:

What Are We Doing About It?

We take coeliac disease extremely seriously. We create our recipes from our dedicated gluten and wheat-free bakery. We're not just chucking a “free-from” label on things and hoping for the best.

Everything we bake is:

✅ Certified gluten free
✅ Made in a dedicated wheat & gluten-free bakery
✅ 100% safe for people with coeliac disease
✅ So good, you’d never know it’s gluten free (and we mean that!!)

We'll be talking Coeliac Awareness this May on our socials, and we'd love to hear from you guys! Let's keep spreading awareness and sharing important information all month long!
