Shopping
Most supermarkets have gluten free ranges. Coeliac UK has an app that lets you scan barcodes to check products.
At home
- use a separate toaster or toaster bags
- use separate butter and spreads, or be careful not to use knives with crumbs
- clean surfaces before preparing gluten free food
Eating out
Restaurants and cafes must be able to tell you if a dish contains gluten. Ask how food is prepared, and whether it could be contaminated.
Travel
Take snacks, and look up gluten free options before you go. Coeliac UK has translation cards for travel abroad.
Support
Coeliac UK has a helpline, recipes and local groups.
