COELIAC UK's Swindon group will hold a gluten-free cookery for Coeliac Awareness Week.

Coeliac disease is caused by intolerance to gluten and is managed by adopting a gluten-free diet.

Coeliac UK has organised Coeliac Awareness Week with the aim of raising awareness among restaurants and hotels by highlighting the need for them to offer gluten-free menu options.

The event will be held at 7pm on Thursday, May 19, at St Margaret's Church Hall, Stratton St Margaret.
