Share Your Story

Lived experience is at the heart of Hirschsprung’s Disease UK.

Sharing your story can:

  • Help another family feel less alone

  • Raise awareness of the realities of Hirschsprung’s disease

  • Inform better understanding across the UK

You can choose how much you share, and whether your story is anonymous.

If you would like to contribute your experience, we would love to hear from you.


Volunteer with us

As we grow, we are building a community of volunteers to help shape the future of Hirschsprung’s Disease UK.

You might support us by:

  • Helping with our zoom peer support sessions

  • Hosting in-person events for families

  • Supporting fundraising initiatives

  • Offering professional skills in areas such as communications, design, research or governance

Trustees: We currently have a full board of trustees but we are always looking for those with experience in accounting to join our board. If you would be interested in becoming a trustee, you can contact us and we can let you know when we are looking for trustees. 

Medical Professionals: We are looking for medical professionals with expertise and an interest in Hirschsprung's disease to become patrons and advisors for Hirschsprung's Disease UK. You don't need a lot of time to be involved, but you can get stuck in with evaluating our Information Hub and other support.

If you would like to get involved, discuss partnership opportunities, or ask a question, we would love to hear from you.
