Managing Gut Conditions at Work and Beyond
About this Event

An opportunity to share your experience of having a gut condition and shape the future of social research around gut stigma. This event is aimed at anyone with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or other gut conditions, including those who are seeking a diagnosis. If you are interested in finding out more about gut stigma at work and beyond and shaping the future of academic research around gut stigma please come along!

The event will involve creative activities and discussions alongside information from two Northumbria University Newcastle academics – Dr Γ“rla Meadhbh Murray (Sociology) and Dr Elisabeth Griffiths (Law). We will explore stigma and discrimination against people with gut conditions at work and beyond and discuss potential collective solutions to navigating embarrassment, shame, and reasonable adjustments.

The event will take place at ReCoCo - for further details on how to find them please see the contact page on their website. For more information please contact Γ“rla via email - [email protected]

***

Attendees will be invited to participate in optional 1-2-1 follow-up discussions online to reflect on the workshop and their gut experiences to inform future sociological research around gut stigma - interview participants will be offered a Β£25 Love2Shop voucher after the interview to say thank you for your participation in the interview.

This is a 2025 Festival of Social Science event funded via the FoSS @ Northumbria University Newcastle.
