About us

We are Colostomy UK. Here if you have questions, need support or just want to talk to someone who lives with a stoma. Your voice on the bigger issues: advocates for your rights and campaigning to raise awareness of what matters to you; running projects to empower you; building communities to support you.

It is estimated that 1 in every 500 people in the UK live with a stoma. We want hidden conditions to be understood and accepted by all. Our vision is of communities in which everyone is empowered to reach their potential.


Colostomy UK is a not for profit charity, financed from donations. These donations empower and transform the lives of people living with a stoma. Your money is used to support and help us deliver core services
