RFA medical question

[Willald]

I was wondering if I can get in the RFA with coeliac disease (gluten free) because the armed forces don't allow it.

The medical standard for the RFA is the ENG1, same as the Merchant Navy.

Have a read of that. I did a quick search through and couldn't find any search results for "coeliac" or "gluten" but you're welcome to have a more detailed look.

Call the RFA’s occupational health advisor. The number has been promulgated here enough times.
